Frequently Asked Questions
What is Neutral Barley Alcohol?

The result is a clear, neutral spirit with very low impurity levels — widely used as a base for premium white spirits and other beverage and food applications.
What industries use Neutral Barley Alcohol?
Barley Alcohol is used in the distilled spirits industry — including Vodka and Gin production — as well as in beverage manufacturing, flavour extraction, food preservation, and vinegar production.
Is Barley Alcohol available in gluten-free or Non-GMO formats?
Barley Alcohol can be supplied in Non-GMO formats. As distillation removes proteins including gluten, it may be suitable for certain gluten-free applications — however buyers producing certified gluten-free products should confirm compliance requirements with our sales team.
