Is Don Julio Tequila Gluten Free?

The Answer is: YES

 

Most premium tequila such as Don Julio is gluten free because it is distilled purely from the agave plant. The process does not include adding colors or flavors, so the remaining product is simply pure agave aged in white oak barrels for the best possible taste. Don Julio has a great page on their craft and process here.

If you are sensitive to gluten or suffer from Celiac Disease, Don Julio is a great choice of tequila that can be taken straight or added as a base to your favorite gluten-free cocktail.
