Costco Crown Maple Bourbon Maple Syrup - Gluten Free?

[vvicin02]

I discovered Costco had a new product that I was excited about. It is Crown Maple Bourbon Barrel Aged Organic Maple Syrup. I really want to try it on my pancakes
waffles. However, I was wondering about how safe it is for us Celiacs since it is aged in oak barrels with bourbon. I emailed them and this is their response:

"The Crown Maple Bourbon Barrel Aged organic maple syrup is pure maple syrup aged in a barrel. This aging process allows the maple syrup to absorb the bourbon flavor from the oak. 
Pure maple syrup is naturally gluten-free. The distillery that makes the bourbon states that they believe their bourbon is gluten free but they do not guarantee it. Laboratory testing of the finished product has shown that there is no detectable gluten and the alcohol level is under 1%."

I know we should be cautious when we see "naturally gluten-free". What do you think? Is it safe?

Thanks

Had bad reaction to Spring Hill pure maple syrup. Have used other brand in the past safely. Could it be the defoamer?

It appears to be naturally gluten-free, and I don't believe wheat could get into it where it is processed, but perhaps give them a call to see if they can give you more info?

Also, did you eat anything else that might have been contaminated?
