Yup, gluten free.

Sometimes the yeast starters that ferment other types of vinegar are made with malted barley (contains gluten) but not any apple ciders.

They add dried yeast to ferment the sugars from the apple juice, then the acetobacter is added to convert the alcohol into acedic acid (vinegar). Enjoy it!

Just to add to the never ending confusion in the life of a Celiac. Glutenous rice is gluten free and in turn the vinegar is gluten free. Glutenous rice is called that because it's sticky.

So your answer is yes, yes it is gluten free.

I think so.

No it is NOT gluten free - it is made using barley malt so it does contain gluten. Look for distilled vinegar only.

Does Balsamic Vinegar have salt?

No. Balsamic Vinegar doesn't contain salt.It is very dark brown in color and its flavor is rich, sweet, and complex, with the finest grades being the product of years of aging in a successive number of casks made of various types of wood (ie. oak, mulberry, chestnut, cherry, juniper, ash, and acacia). Originally it was a product available only to the Italian upper classes, a cheaper form of balsamic vinegar became widely known and available around the world in the late twentieth century. True balsamic vinegar is aged for 12 to 25 years. Balsamic vinegar's that have been aged for up to 100 years are available, though they are usually very expensive. The commercial balsamic sold in supermarkets is typically made with red wine vinegar or concentrated grape juice mixed with a strong vinegar, which is laced with caramel and sugar. Regardless of how it is produced, balsamic vinegar must be made from a grape product.
