Seagram's Distiller's Reserve Gin is 51% abv. / 102 proof and like the Seagram's Extra Dry Gin is aged in oak barrels for a period of time. Seagram's Gin is the only barrel aged gin on the market. Seagram's Distiller's Reserve is the combination of the best of the barrels as selected out of hundreds by Seagram's Master Distiller. The ones that have the richest character and most distinctive aroma and taste are blended at barrel proof strength to create this gin. The higher strength of the spirit is definitely noticeable when sipped straight.The color is a very pale straw yellow from the barrel aging. The aroma is similar to the Extra Dry, but much more so. The blend of citrus, spices, and juniper is strong, but well balanced. Juniper takes the forefront with citrus holding it up, and the spicy and herbal notes floating along pleasantly behind. Not as bold as some of the new, big, in your face, American gins, the Seagram's Distiller's Reserve sets a new standard in gin as a classically styled, American dry gin.
The flavor is also bolder than the Extra Dry without being too bold. Elegant; mild citrus, juniper, and herbs. This gin will add its input to any cocktail or highball it is in, without demanding the primary role. It makes an excellent G&T where it expresses itself enough to stand up to the tonic, without being brash about it.

Wine (both grape and fruit wines), mead (honey wine), hard cider, perry (hard pear cider) are also gluten free. Basically beer is the only alcoholic beverage that may contain gluten.
