Costco Crown Maple Bourbon Maple Syrup - Gluten Free?

I discovered Costco had a new product that I was excited about. It is Crown Maple Bourbon Barrel Aged Organic Maple Syrup. I really want to try it on my pancakes
waffles. However, I was wondering about how safe it is for us Celiacs since it is aged in oak barrels with bourbon. I emailed them and this is their response:

"The Crown Maple Bourbon Barrel Aged organic maple syrup is pure maple syrup aged in a barrel. This aging process allows the maple syrup to absorb the bourbon flavor from the oak. 
Pure maple syrup is naturally gluten-free. The distillery that makes the bourbon states that they believe their bourbon is gluten free but they do not guarantee it. Laboratory testing of the finished product has shown that there is no detectable gluten and the alcohol level is under 1%."

I know we should be cautious when we see "naturally gluten-free". What do you think? Is it safe?

Thanks

Had bad reaction to Spring Hill pure maple syrup. Have used other brand in the past safely. Could it be the defoamer?

It appears to be naturally gluten-free, and I don't believe wheat could get into it where it is processed, but perhaps give them a call to see if they can give you more info?

Also, did you eat anything else that might have been contaminated?

      There is plenty of gluten food that is unplatable also. The trouble in restaurants is that wheat,  like the Frank's Hot Sauce commercial; "They throw that bleep on everything." In my opinion, the underlying problem is compromised immune system due to vitamin D deficiency and Green Revolution modern wheat.  50% of the industrialized world are vitamin D deficient and we are urged to avoid sun and limit oral vitamin D intake to the minimum.   Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity became an official diagnosis only 10 years after modern wheat was marketed.

      I understand from one of our forum moderators who is UK-based that the benefits of having an official celiac diagnosis varies depending on your postal code. So then, it must be a benefit tied to local government rather than national government.

      I think if I gave up gluten and got a negative blood result and stick with it rather than do the gluten challenge (even though I’ve got no symptoms.. yet).  think if I gave up gluten and got a negative blood result and stick with it rather than do the gluten challenge (even though I’ve got no symptoms.. yet).

      Obviously, you have looked at all this from various angles and I respect that. But consider this, you could trial the gluten-free diet for six months to see if it results in lower ttg-iga scores. If so, it is another piece of evidence pointing to celiac disease. You could then go off the gluten fast and return to a gluten loaded diet for weeks or months and repeat the colonoscopy/endoscopy. My point is that trialing a gluten-free diet does not eliminate the possibility of getting valid celiac retesting at a late date if you are willing to engage with the gluten challenge.
