Gluten Free Alcohol

Any suggestions for Gluten free alcohol that is fully gluten free (other than wine). I have a list of brands from an online site, but I don't see most of the brands from that list in my local store. Last year, I got some brandy of a different brand than on the list, and just in case, e-mailed them about possible gluten. I wasn't worried and drank some that night. Felt bad the next day and then the e-mail returned with "yes, trace amounts of gluten." Definitely no dairy either. I'm interested in Rum, Brandy, Vodka & Kaluha substitute (Kalua has dairy I was informed) -- Made in USA preferable.

Thanks - I don't know why I didn't notice the list on this cite as well. Anybody with info on particular brand names that they have already called? I'm a bit concerned b/c my last assumption that Brandy would be gluten free - turned out wrong. Just don't want to start contacting them all, if someone has already done it! Thanks.

There are some here that cannot handle distilled alcohol at all. You may be sensitive to it as well.

This obviously isn't exhaustive, but it is the best list of beverages I've seen:

Thanks, that's a great list! Ever seen any list that include dairy/casein? Most alcohols don't have it, but liquors can. I'm wondering about rum, butter? I don't know why -- maybe just the hot butter rum thing?

I've seen a casein-free beverage list. But it was designed for those who put their kids on Gluten-free Casein-free diets, so no alcohol B)

I know Bailey's is out; at least some of Godiva's liqueur's would be too. I think you need to read the ingredients for any combo type product like this. I don't see why straight rum would be a problem.

If you are really sensitive to casein, you may need to be careful which wines you use. Some are "fined" (sediment removal) using casein. I've seen folks here say they have reacted to particular wines before and I even ran across a study saying it is possible.

Unfortunately, wines do not have to list their fining agent yet. There is a proposal now to require allergen listing on wine in the US (in addition to milk, there may be egg, fish [yes, you read that right -- it's another fining agent], and even gluten [barrels glued together with a wheat-based glue]). The vintners are fighting this.

If you want to be careful in this respect, you need to stick with vegan wines. You can google and find lists of them.

Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was...

      Celiac Disease and Longevity: Can Treatment and Healing Improve Long-Term Survival?

      Thanks for the prompt reply. Interesting that blood test could be caused by other things. I am sure Dr Fincher will get to the bottom of it. I know he ate nowhere near that amt of gluten before the endoscope. Always interested in any new info abt celiac. U can not trust what is said on fb- That would be a piece of bread a day. He didn't even make that...

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was sent.I have email copies.I did one zoom call with np with team member from celiac specialist in Nov 2025 and she asked me why I wanted to know why I wanted the celiac diagnosis so bad, I sad I don't, its my life and I need revalidaion because its affecting me.KB stated well it shows you are.I asked then why am I going through all this.I was labeled unruly. Its been a celiac circus and medical has caused anxiety and depression no fault to my own other than being born with bad genetics. How is it legal for medical professionals to gaslight patients that are with an ailment coming for help to be downplayed? KB put in my records that she personally spent 120min with me and I think the zoom call was discussing celiac 80 min ONE ZOOM call.SHE is responsible for not explaining to my pcp about celiac disease am I right?

Its alarming these places are popping up in airports as well.I just saw on the news that the airport ( can't remember which  one)was going to have a fabulous smelling bakery. Not for sensitive celiacs, this can alter their health during their travel which isn't safe. More awareness really NEEDS to be promoted, so much more than just a food consumption!FYI I did write to Stanislaus to let them know my thoughts on the medical field not knowing much about celiac and how it affects one.I also did message my gi the 3 specialist names that was given on previous post on questions on celiac. I pray its not on deaf door.
