Usually when making a Manhattan I'm using Canadian Whiskey, Seagram's VO. The good bourbons I usually just drink neat. I can't remember what the label was on the whiskey I was using the other day but will take a look when I get home. The ginger ale was Canada Dry [diet].
Bourbons probably would not be good with my ginger recipe above, because the Domaine de Canton is sweet and so is the soda, so you want something that does not have a sweet flavor profile. Seagram's VO is foul tasting enough to work well this way, both for making a Manhattan or this drink, too.
