Yes! Distilled bourbon is gluten-free. In fact it is good for you, even though some bourbons are made from barley, wheat or rye, the drink can still technically be enjoyed by those with celiac disease.
Don’t trust our word? Then take into account that the National Celiac Association considers all distilled alcohol to be gluten-free.
It is the distillation process that we have to thank. This process instantly makes the bourbon gluten-free. However, this doesnt mean thise with celiac disease can go out and drink bourbon without checking the individual bottle.
You see, some companies add additional flavors after the bourbon has been distilled. We recommend looking at each bottle to find a few go-to brands that offer gluten-free bourbon.
