Are Swift Ciders Gluten Free?

When it comes to our beloved Swift ciders, we understand the importance of providing accurate and transparent information about our products. One question that often arises among cider enthusiasts is whether our ciders are gluten free. Well, let’s delve into the details and shed some light on this topic.

Understanding Gluten

First, it’s crucial to have a clear understanding of what gluten actually is. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. For individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, consuming gluten can lead to digestive issues and other adverse health effects.

The Majority of Our Ciders are Gluten Free

Rest assured, the majority of our Swift ciders are indeed gluten free. We take great care in crafting our ciders to ensure they are accessible to a wide range of consumers, including those with gluten sensitivities. Our production process and equipment are designed to maintain a gluten-free environment, resulting in ciders that can be enjoyed by many.

Cider Aging in Sour Beer Barrels

However, it’s important to note that we do age some of our cider batches in sour beer barrels. While the aging process adds unique flavors and complexity to the ciders, there is a potential for trace amounts of gluten to be present due to the previous use of the barrels. This is a rare occurrence and we take every precaution to minimize any cross-contamination.

Transparent Labeling

At Swift, we believe in being transparent with our consumers. Any cider that may contain trace amounts of gluten due to the aging process in sour beer barrels will be clearly labeled. We understand the significance of providing accurate information so that individuals with gluten sensitivities can make informed choices about the ciders they consume.

If you have a gluten sensitivity or follow a gluten-free diet, we offer a solution to ensure you can enjoy our ciders worry-free. We provide the option to create a 100% Gluten Free Mix Case by swapping out any ciders that may contain trace amounts of gluten with delicious gluten-free alternatives. This way, you can indulge in a variety of our ciders without compromising your dietary needs.

We are proud to be a part of their journey and offer options that cater to their dietary requirements. It is always a joy for us to see individuals with gluten sensitivities savoring our ciders with confidence and pleasure.

In conclusion, the majority of our Swift ciders are gluten free, but it’s important to be aware that some batches may contain trace amounts of gluten due to the aging process in sour beer barrels. However, we ensure transparent labeling and offer the option to create a 100% Gluten Free Mix Case for those who require a completely gluten-free experience.
