A remarkably unique Vodka made from quadruple-distilled Weber Blue Agave.

Did you know that big-time comedy superstar Dan Aykroyd founded the House of Blues bar and music venues? It’s true. He is also a big fan of cocktails and when he couldn’t find a pure Vodka in the US without additives he founded Crystal Head Vodka with artist John Alexander in 2007. Each edition is quadruple-distilled and filtered seven times for purity. The last three filtrations pass through thousands of "Herkimer Diamonds" from New York State. Each Italian-made glass decanter is shaped like a human skull, inspired by the legend of the "thirteen skulls."

The first Crystal Head Vodkas were single grain Spirits — the first was made from Canadian corn, the second from English wheat. Crystal Head Onyx Vodka is made from 100% Weber Blue Agave just like Tequila. In fact, if it was only distilled twice, it would be a premium Tequila. Agave is one of the most expensive Spirits to make due to the time it takes to grow. We’ve never seen it used in a Vodka before. And that investment speaks loudly to the dedication to creating an innovative, quality Spirit. And the "skull" decanter this time is a brilliant, onyx black glass.

Smartass Corner:
"Herkimer Diamonds" are not actual diamonds. They are naturally-forming, multi-faceted quartz crystals that formed in soft, volcanic dolomite as it slowly cooled.
