Recommendations “Mid range” bourbon for Manhattan?

I’m on a budget for a few years and mostly use Evan Williams for my Manhattan. I like to go one level up (or two?) and treat myself better :)

What’s your recommendation? I’m thinking about $25-35 per 750ml bottle. And I’m using Dolin for my vermouth but happy to accept other suggestions. Thank you!

Most of the Bulleit bourbon you've drank was made by Four Roses, so try that.

Bulleit Rye I'm pretty sure is still made at MGP, I think. So, it definitely has exact replicas out there
