Crystal Head Vodka – Miniature 5cl Miniature

There’s more to Crystal Head Vodka’s skull bottle than its outrageously cool aesthetic. Taking two years to complete, the skull design is based on the mystery of the crystal skulls said to have come from the Aztec era, which hold mystical powers…

And the vodka itself is equally fantastical. Quadruple-distilled from Canadian corn into a neutral grain spirit, it’s then blended with pristine water and filtered through layers of 500 million year-old crystals known as Herkimer diamonds.

This is a pure and unadulterated take on vodka that’s clean, clear and colourless, with bright citrus notes that are mellowed out with the warmth of the grain, and finished with a touch of vanilla. A status symbol of the vodka world.

Perfect serve: Try the brand’s legendary cocktail, Dan’s 54 Bar Car. Shake up a couple of shots of Crystal Head Vodka with a splash of dry vermouth and a splash of olive brine. Shake and strain into a short tumbler of ice, and garnish with a skewer of two olives and a pearl onion.
