US-based 21st Century Spirits has launched its potato vodka, Blue Ice Vodka with a ‘Gluten Free’ designation on the package label.
The designation appears on the Blue Ice vodka label in the form of a red badge labeled, 'Gluten Free' in the upper right corner of the bottle.
Distilled Resources director Gray Ottley said, "Three years in the making, federal approval to officially label Blue Ice Vodka as gluten free is another progressive step for the industry and for all of those who suffer from gluten intolerance."
Blue Ice Vodka, produced at Distilled Resources, is claimed to be the first spirit brand to achieve a Gluten Free COLA approval by the Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB).
Gluten free claims by spirit companies have been prohibited on package labeling, previous to the Gluten Free COLA approval.
