Brand History: Seagram’s Extra Dry Gin is a long‑standing American gin brand that traces its roots to the broader Seagram enterprise founded in the 19th century; the gin itself launched in the U.S. market in 1939 and grew into one of North America’s best‑selling gins. It later became part of Pernod Ricard’s portfolio after the Seagram spirits breakup in the early 2000s, while production continued in the United States.
