<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> After I posted that there seemed to be no responses to my query regarding the gf status of liquors I received the following information. One person suggested I try to get the information from the distributor. doing that in the past has been frustrating but I will try again and post if I get any where. One person suggested I go to the following web site. http://www.geocities.com/HotSprings/Spa/4003/gf-index.html Since the information was long and not definitive ,I suggest that you check the site personally and decide for yourself. The next response was the following information. I am quoting it in total to be sure I quote it correctly. "The GF status of liquors depends on your personal belief in whether the distillation process allows for gluten to be a part of the finished product - be it vinegar or liquor. If you believe the "true science of distillation" - that says all distilled products do NOT contain gluten - then all Liquors (and vinegars) are safe as long as there are no gluten containing products added to them after distillation. If you do not accept the scientific facts, than the only liquors that are "safe" are those that are distilled from not offending grains; such as rum, tequila, brandy, potato vodka, etc." The bottom line is that since I am allergic to corn, and rice as well as being gluten sensitive, I am staying away from liquors. I do drink a bit of red or white wine on rare occasions. I operate on the better safe than sorry motto. Thaione in NY and Florida
