Frequently Asked Questions

Is Ketel One Citroen vodka completely gluten-free?

Ketel One Citroen vodka is considered gluten-free since the distillation process removes gluten proteins. However, those with severe gluten sensitivities should note it’s made from wheat.

Do they use any wheat-based additives in the flavoring process?

No wheat-based additives are used in our flavoring process. All our flavorings are gluten-free.

Could there be cross-contamination with gluten during production?

Cross-contamination with gluten is possible if the facility also processes wheat-containing products or if shared equipment isn’t properly cleaned between production runs. For guaranteed gluten-free products, look for items made in dedicated gluten-free facilities with third-party certification.

Does the citrus flavoring contain any hidden gluten or malt ingredients?

No, our citrus flavoring is gluten-free and contains only natural citrus oils and extracts. We verify all ingredients with our suppliers to ensure no cross-contamination with gluten or malt products.

Is the distillation process thorough enough to remove all gluten proteins?

Distillation completely removes all gluten proteins as they cannot vaporize during the heating process. The gluten proteins remain in the mash while only pure alcohol evaporates and is collected.
