Distilled Alcohols (vodka, gin, scotch, etc) do not contain gluten.

However, some people are more sensitive to the fact they are wheat/grain based than other people. It depends on your sensitivity.

Strangely enough, 5 years ago, I could not drink wheat/grain based vodka.

However, I drink Ketel One every time I go out now and do not have any problems.

It sucks to say, but it is a trial and error thing for you...

Hey, i'm a new member, though i've had celiac disease all i'm life. I was just wondering if anyone knows if Smirnoff and Bacardi are ok?

Edit* nevermind I just did some looking on other forums and it looks like Bacardi is ok, and Smirnoff vodka is but not the twists.

Does anyone know if amaretto is gluten-free? It's not on the safe list, but I don't see what's in it that would make it contain gluten ... I don't get reactions so I have no way of doing trial and error or knowing if I ever get glutened.

Also, what's a good reference to find gluten-free alcohols ... my doctors are still at Children's Hospital and have no idea about liquors

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten?  I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.

      Thanks a lot for your response! Can you maybe specify which kind of cheeses I should be cautious about? Camembert/Brie and blue cheeses (the molds of which are nowadays mostly grown on gluten-free media, though, so I've read, right?) or other ones as well? Also, I was under the impression that yeast is generally gluten-free if not declared otherwise. Is that false?
