Is Bourbon Whiskey Gluten Free?

Bourbon whiskey is generally considered gluten-free because the distillation process removes gluten proteins from the final product. However, some extremely gluten-sensitive individuals may still react to trace amounts that could potentially remain, or to flavorings or additives that might be introduced after distillation in some brands.

What is Tolerase® G?

A new Approach for People with Gluten Sensitivity:
Explore the Science and Benefits of Tolerase® G.

 

Relief from Gluten Sensitivity

In the fight against gluten, there is a unique supplement that stands out: Little Helpers anti-gluten pills with 100% Tolerase® G.

This specific enzyme, Tolerase® G, a patented endopeptidase specific for proline, was developed by  Royal DSM  and has been scientifically proven to be effective in breaking down gluten residues​ ( 1) ​. Furthermore, research has shown that Aspergillus niger prolyl endoprotease (AN-PEP), an enzyme closely related to Tolerase® G, can break down gluten so effectively that it barely reaches the duodenum, potentially eliminating gluten toxicity​ ( 2) ( ​​3 ) ​.

On this page we explain why we are so enthusiastic about this supplement, supported by scientific research.

What is Gluten?

Gluten is a group of proteins found primarily in grains such as wheat, barley, and rye. These complex proteins give shape, strength, and texture to bread and other grain products. However, gluten is difficult to digest because it is rich in proline, a non-essential amino acid. This is why about 13% of the world’s population is sensitive to gluten in their diet​ (1)​.

How Tolerase® G Works

It is important to note that Tolerase G is designed to have optimal activity in the difficult conditions of the stomach. Its effectiveness on the digestion of gluten in the stomach and duodenum has been scientifically proven ( 1 ).

Studies have shown that a newly identified prolyl endoprotease derived from Aspergillus niger can effectively break down gluten proteins. This enzyme works optimally at a pH of 4–5, remains stable at pH 2, and is completely resistant to digestion by pepsin ( 2 ). Furthermore, research has shown that Aspergillus niger prolyl endoprotease (AN-PEP) accelerates the breakdown of gluten in the stomach so much that very little gluten reaches the duodenum ( 3 ). This suggests that co-administration of AN-PEP with a meal containing gluten could potentially eliminate gluten toxicity, allowing people to (occasionally) abandon their strict gluten-free diet ( 3 ).

Frequently
Asked Questions

Which bourbons are not gluten-free?
All true bourbon whiskey is inherently gluten-free. Bourbon is made from a mash of at least 51% corn, with other grains like rye or wheat making up the remainder. The distillation process removes gluten proteins from the final product. However, some flavored or blended bourbon-based liqueurs may contain added ingredients with gluten, so it's best to check the label on those products.
Is bourbon whiskey safe for celiacs?
Bourbon whiskey is generally considered safe for people with celiac disease. The distillation process removes gluten proteins from the final product. However, some celiacs may still react to trace amounts or to additives in certain bourbon brands. It's always best for individuals with celiac disease to consult their doctor and exercise caution when trying new alcoholic beverages.
What bourbon is 100% gluten-free?
All bourbon is inherently gluten-free. This is because bourbon is made primarily from corn, which does not contain gluten. The distillation process also removes any potential gluten proteins from other grains that may be used in small amounts. As long as no gluten-containing additives are introduced after distillation, all bourbon can be considered 100% gluten-free.
Does Jim Beam bourbon have gluten?
Jim Beam bourbon does not contain gluten. Bourbon is made primarily from corn, which is naturally gluten-free. The distillation process used to make bourbon further eliminates any potential gluten proteins. Therefore, Jim Beam and other bourbons are generally considered safe for those with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease.
