Not just a gimmicky, well packaged vodka- this is also very, very good. The unique ingredients are peaches and cream corn which gives a soft and mellow tasting spirit. It is distilled four times and filtered a further seven times (3 of which are done through semi precious crystals).

FAQs
Crystal Head Original Vodka typically retails from €55 to €70 for a standard 70cl bottle in its iconic skull shaped decanter. The Crystal Head Aurora, distilled from English wheat, commands a similar price. The Crystal Head Onyx, made from blue agave spirit, sits slightly higher at €65 to €80. As a premium craft vodka co founded by actor Dan Aykroyd, a significant portion of the price reflects the distinctive packaging rather than raw production cost.
Crystal Palace Vodka is a budget vodka brand produced in the United States and distributed primarily as a value tier product in the American market. It is not widely available through Irish or EU specialist retailers. It should not be confused with Crystal Head Vodka, which is a premium Canadian product in a skull shaped bottle available at Celtic Whiskey Shop. If you are enquiring about Crystal Head Vodka, see the adjacent entry for current euro pricing.
Yes. Crystal Head Original Vodka is distilled from peaches and cream corn, which contains no gluten. The Aurora expression is distilled from English winter wheat, which is distilled to remove gluten proteins. Crystal Head is certified gluten free. The skull bottle decanter is made from lead free crystal glass. As with all grain distilled spirits in the case of the Aurora expression, individuals with clinically confirmed coeliac disease should consult their medical advisor.
Crystal Head makes a genuinely well crafted vodka at a premium price point. The Original expression, made from peaches and cream corn and filtered through Herkimer diamond crystals, produces a clean, slightly sweet, and soft textured character that outperforms many mass market vodkas. The packaging premium is real: a significant portion of the retail price is the skull bottle. If quality per euro is the primary criterion, better vodka is available for less. If the bottle is part of the experience, it delivers.
