Crystal Head Vodka Collection
The Synthesis of Artistry, Legend, and Uncompromising Purity
Co-founded in 2008 by iconic actor Dan Aykroyd and renowned artist John Alexander, Crystal Head Vodka was conceived to create an ultra-premium spirit completely free of additives, glycerol, citrus oils, or added sugars. Inspired by the archaeological mystery of the 13 crystal skulls believed to possess spiritual power and enlightenment, the brand reimagined vodka production by combining artistic bottle design with pristine Canadian natural resources.
Distilled in Newfoundland, Canada, Crystal Head stands out in the vodka category for its commitment to unadulterated purity. Housed in its instantly recognizable skull-shaped glass decanter—crafted by Milanese artisan glassmaker Bruni Glass—the spirit inside is as refined as the vessel itself, earning top awards at major international spirits competitions worldwide.
Craftsmanship & Production Process
-
Pristine Ingredients: Crafted using highest-grade local Canadian ingredients—ranging from sweet "Peaches and Cream" corn to premium English wheat and blue agave—blended with the glacier-fed water of St. John’s, Newfoundland.
-
Seven-Fold Filtration: The liquid undergoes a rigorous filtration process. It is filtered seven times, including three filtration passes through a layer of semi-precious quartz crystals known as Herkimer diamonds, which impart a smooth, clean finish.
-
Zero Additives: Unlike many commercial vodkas that use additives like glycerol or sugar to mask harshness, Crystal Head relies entirely on distillation precision and pristine filtration for its silky mouthfeel.
Core Expressions & Portfolio Highlights
-
Original Crystal Head Vodka: Made from Canadian "Peaches and Cream" corn. Quadruple-distilled and seven-times filtered. Delivers a neutral, silky profile with subtle notes of vanilla, citrus, and a gentle sweet grain warmth.
-
Aurora: Crafted using high-grade English wheat grown in Yorkshire. Distilled five times and filtered seven times. Offers a crisper, drier, and more floral profile with a light spicy peppery kick, presented in an iridescent skull bottle inspired by the Northern Lights.
-
Onyx: A groundbreaking agave-based vodka crafted from 100% Blue Weber Agave sourced from a single farm in Jalisco, Mexico. Housed in a striking matte-black skull bottle, it marries the clean neutrality of vodka with earthy agave, fresh grass, and pepper notes.
-
Pride & Limited Editions: Special annual releases featuring vibrant hand-painted or custom-finished glass designs celebrating global diversity, art, and cultural milestones.
Epicurean Pairings & Mixology
-
Serving Suggestions: Exceptionally smooth served neat, straight from the freezer, or poured over a single large ice sphere to appreciate its creamy texture.
-
Cocktail Applications: The ultimate clean canvas for a classic Dry Vodka Martini with a lemon twist, an elevated Espresso Martini, or a crisp Vodka Tonic garnished with fresh lime or cucumber.
-
Food Pairings: Pairs impeccably with luxury appetizers—ossetra caviar served on blinis, fresh oysters, smoked salmon, sashimi, blanched edamame, and artisanal salted cheeses.
