Seagram's 7 Whisky

Seagram's Seven Crown, commonly known as Seagram's 7, is an American brand of whisky. It was very popular during the 1970s. After quite some time, sales started to decline during the 1980s and 1990s when people started to try out new drinks such as vodka and rum. Even so, this has not stopped Seagram's 7 Whisky from being pushed out of the shelf by other popular drinks. It has also managed to secure its niche in the bar scene.

 

Seagram's 7 Whisky falls under the category of blended whisky. In case you're asking yourself what the heck is a blended whisky, it is produced by combining different types of whiskies. A mix of different types of Single Grain and Single Malt make up the flavors of blended whisky brews.

 

Back in the 60s, the "7 and 7" was wildly popular among military men on base. "7 and 7" was a mixture of 7-up and Seagram's 7 Whisky. Compared to its competitors, Seagram's is relatively cheaper. It has a smooth apricot flavor leaving you with buttery goodness. Since it is aged in oak charred barrels for a minimum of four years, its taste is smooth. It is mild but has a robust flavor. The bite is pretty mild compared to other whiskies. It is not the best tasting whisky but it does deserve credit for its texture and versatility. And to top it off, it is a great mixer for cocktails.
