President William McKinley liked rye whiskey. He had a drink named after him called "McKinley's Delight" which was 3 ounces of rye, an ounce of sweet vermouth, two dashes of cherry brandy and a dash of absinthe. His successor, Teddy Roosevelt, had similar tastes with rye-based mint juleps being his favorite.
