Seagram’s 7 Crown American Whiskey is a classic blended whiskey and bottled at 40% abv. This whiskey was very popular in the 1970’s but lost popularity in the 1980’s & 1990’s when people switched to rum and vodka drinks.
This is an old school whiskey that you would see at your grandparents’ home or a older bar or country club. The nose and taste are not very impressive and there really is not much there. It is basically a mixer that goes with soda water. It is most well known when it is ordered as a “7 and 7” which is Seagram’s 7 and 7 Up Soda. The last time I heard this drink mentioned out loud was in the movie Bridesmaids. I have not heard it ordered in a bar yet.
Nothing special about this whiskey other than it has a low production. Maybe bring it to a 70’s themed party with a six pack of 7 Up or Tab Cola if you can find it.
Priced around $35 and not that good, unless you want to go back in time.
