Templeton Rye make a difference? Really? They have been successfully sued for being a false product. It's not made in Iowa like it bottle led people to believe, but rather in a huge factory (formerly Seagrams) in Indiana that makes generic Rye for many different bottlers.
I didn't have any rye on hand but made it with a nice bourbon, probably too nice to use in a mixed drink, but I was really in the mood for a Manhattan. It still turned out clean and dry. I'll get some rye for my next try.

Hey John, It may be a miss used marketing ploy but boy is it a good whiskey!
The vermouth choice is far more consequential than the rye. My preferred brand is already too hard to find, so I'm selfishly mum on specific recommendations. But I will say this: Shop around! There is much to discover beyond Dolin and Punt e Mes!
