I recently contacted Lipton and Celestial Seasonings about teas. I
couldn't find the email address of the person who requested the
information, sorry. I was sent the following is a list of Gluten-Free
products that Lipton makes. After I include the few products I asked
about from Celestial Seasonings.
Lipton: 1-800-697-7897
The following list of Lipton products are gluten free [products with lactose in
them I have put an asterisk (*) next to]. These products do not contain wheat,
rye, oats, barley, or any of their derivatives. Since products are subject to
reformulation, consumers should periodically check ingredient statements for
specific food intolerances.

Celestial Seasonings: 1-800-525-0347 (They also have a website that
lists all the ingredients of their teas and you can order online -
http://www.celestialseasonings.com - I don't have any investment in
this company, I'm just a long-time user of their teas.)
I was told some of their teas contain roasted barley but that all tea
ingredients are listed on the labels. I asked about a few in particular
(my regular flavors and a few I wanted to try). I was told the
Peppermint (which is decaffeinated) is ok, so is the Tension Tamer (they
have a Tension Tamer Extra that may not be ok, I'm too new at this to
tell, but there are some questionable natural ingredients - to me at
least), Echinacea Cold Season Herb Tea is ok, but the plain Echinacea is
not gluten free.
I've made other calls to other companies as well and have yet to
summarize all the responses to my post as a new member, but I appreciate
all the wonder help/advice I've been given and will put it together soon
to share. :-)
