The Seagram 1776 Special Edition is a distinguished collector’s release created to celebrate the American Bicentennial in 1976. Conceived as both a fine spirit and a commemorative object, it highlights the craftsmanship of Seagram’s master blenders and the artistry of Tiffany & Co., who were commissioned to design its exclusive crystal decanter.
The decanter is striking in form and detail. Its crystal body is cut with a diamond pattern around the base, transitioning into smooth curves that reflect light with elegance. The heavy, multi-tiered stopper crowns the piece with authority, while the silver-toned collar engraved with “1776 by Seagram” and references to Premium American Whiskey reinforce its celebratory nature. Many examples were also accompanied by a Tiffany certificate of authenticity and a descriptive neck tag outlining the significance of the bicentennial tribute.
The whiskey inside represents Seagram’s premium blending tradition, carefully selected from American stocks to embody smoothness, balance, and character. Bottled at 86 proof, it carries the warm notes of oak, caramel, and spice that defined Seagram’s house style during its peak years as one of the world’s largest distillers.
Beyond the spirit itself, the Tiffany-designed decanter elevates this release into the realm of collectible art glass. With its combination of cut crystal, bold design, and commemorative engraving, it stands as a showcase of 1970s luxury Americana. For collectors of whiskey history or Tiffany design, the Seagram 1776 is an object that unites heritage, craftsmanship, and patriotic symbolism in one remarkable piece.
