Gluten in Vodka?

I was diagnosed celiac disease over 15 years ago and have always adhered to a strict gluten-free diet. I have never had a problem with alcohol and always am sure to drink vodkas that are at least 4 x’s distilled. With that said, I was at a club and ordered a top shelf vodka with tonic, (over 4 x’s  distilled). Within 15 minutes I knew I had been glutened. I later went on the website of the distillery and it identified the vodka as handcrafted.  

Is anyone aware of any handcrafted processing that would add gluten back into vodka, as is done with double malted scotch?

Hopefully someone will respond to your question.  Maybe your Glass was dirty.  When bars are busy, glasses are not run through the dishwasher.  They are dunked in a anti-bacterial solution.  Possibly wiped with a contaminated bar towel.  Maybe your glass was compromised?  Just a thought.  

When the bar is busy, I ask for a paper or plastic cup because I was a bar maid back in my university days.   I saw it all.

Tito’s is my “go-to” (despite my moniker). The bar in question didn’t stock it.

      Kan-101

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      KAN‑101 is still very much in development and being actively studied. It has not been dropped—rather, it is advancing through Phases 1 and 2, moving toward what could become the first disease‑modifying treatment for celiac disease. https://anokion.com/press_releases/anokion-announces-positive-symptom-data-from-its-phase-2-trial-evaluating-kan-101-for-the-treatment-of-celiac-disease/

      Still unsure.....

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Thiamine interacts with all the other B vitamins.  Thiamine and B 6 make a very important enzyme together. With more thiamine and other vitamins available from the supplements your body is absorbing the ones you need more of.  The body can control which vitamins to absorb or not.  You're absorbing more and it's being transported through the blood.   It's common to have both a Thiamine and a Pyridoxine deficiency.  Keep taking the B Complex. This is why it's best to stop taking supplements for six to eight weeks before testing vitamin levels.

      Yes I took a supplement that had B6 in it, low dosage though. I've stopped taking that. B1 doesn't affect other B vitamin levels?

      Any Gluten-free Lipstick At Walgreens, Wal-mart, Etc?

      Have you tried lip balm made from tallow?  It's been used for thousands of years and works better than those with waxes. I prefer Vintage Traditions brand tallow balm products.
