Crystal Head Gold Edition Vodka

Product Description

Crystal Head Vodka Gold Edition: The Iconic Skull, Finished in Gold

Crystal Head Vodka Gold Edition takes one of the most recognizable bottles in spirits and finishes it in metallic gold. The skull-shaped decanter is topped with a natural wood cork, and the result is a limited-edition collector’s piece that turns any bar, shelf, or gift into a statement. Inside is the same vodka that made Crystal Head famous: a clean, silky, additive-free vodka made from Canadian corn.

Crystal Head was co-founded in 2008 by actor Dan Aykroyd and artist John Alexander, who designed the skull bottle after the legend of the thirteen crystal skulls. It’s a brand that built its name on a simple promise, a vodka as pure as the bottle is bold, and it went on to win a Double Gold Medal at the 2011 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.

What’s in the Bottle

The Gold Edition contains Crystal Head Original Vodka, the same recipe as the standard bottle, so the only thing that changes is the finish. It’s bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof) and is gluten-free.

How Crystal Head Vodka Is Made

Crystal Head is made from locally sourced Canadian corn, distilled four times, and blended with pristine glacial water from Newfoundland. It’s then filtered seven times, including three passes through layers of Herkimer diamonds, the quartz crystals from Herkimer, New York, which the brand says contribute to its smoothness. It’s made without additives: no citrus oil, glycerin, sugar, or synthetic flavorings.

Tasting Notes

Appearance: Crystal clear.

Nose: Neutral grain aromas with a delicate touch of citrus, with light vanilla.

Palate: Silky and smooth, with a creamy texture, a hint of sweetness and vanilla, and soft corn sweetness.

Finish: Sweet and creamy, clean and smooth.

Why Buy the Gold Edition

• A collectible: A limited-edition metallic gold skull that stands out on a shelf.
• Gift-ready: A memorable gift for fans of Dan Aykroyd, collectors, and anyone who has everything.
• A pour you can trust: The same award-winning, additive-free vodka as the original.

Food Pairings

Crystal Head’s clean profile pairs well with oysters, smoked salmon, caviar, and sushi, or with salty snacks like pretzels and olives. For something heartier, it goes with fried chicken, pizza, and burgers.

Serving Suggestions

Crystal Head Gold Edition is best served ice cold and neat, or in a Martini, where its clean structure shines. It also works in a Moscow Mule, Vodka Soda, Cosmopolitan, or Bloody Mary. Keep the bottle in the freezer for a chilled pour, and keep the empty skull as a decanter or display piece.
