1, thats awesome. 2, they note gluten free specifically - which if they test for it (I really hope they do when they make the claim, because distillation does not guarantee gluten-free) means I’ve got a new whiskey to enjoy!
Added ingredients is the usual culprit, that said - some barrel pastes use a wheat base, which can then be a problem. Good ones use beeswax.
Some double distilled can be a problem for me. I obviously have no way of testing other than bad experiences, but I have yet to find a triple distilled thats an issue.
Short answer - “should” and “does” are two separate issues. “Should” isn’t good enough when it comes to a medical issue, something I’ve learned the hard way with being gluten free.

Gluten weighs so much more than alcohol that Im baffled as to how it would remain in solution in alcohol. It should be separated in distillation.

I assumed all distilled alcohol was gluten free. Perhaps there are some odd production exceptions.
