It is oak-mellowed — unusual for gin, and the reason some bottles look faintly gold. This page is the gin. Seagram’s 7 Crown is a Diageo American blended whiskey.

A 750 mL 40% gin is about 17 standard drinks; a 1.75 L about 39.5. Four G&Ts built on 1.5 ounces are four drinks. NIAAA binge pattern is a health line, not a target. Distillery city (Fort Smith, AR vs Lawrenceburg, IN) is reported both ways; the back label wins. No 2026 MSRP.
