Onyx Blue Weber Agave Vodka

Introducing something altogether brand new from Crystal Head Vodka: Onyx.

Onyx is a unique new expression of Crystal Head Vodka crafted from premium Blue Weber Agave sourced from a single farm in Mexico. First came Crystal Head Original made from Canadian corn, then Crystal Head Aurora made from English wheat, and now we have the third iteration made from an ingredient usually associated with Tequila.

Crystal Head Onyx is an ultra-pure, unadulterated spirit. Like its stablemates, it contains no additives at all, it’s blended with water from St John’s in Newfoundland and is filtered through more than 10,000 quartz crystals called Herkimer diamonds, which gives the product its clean and semi-sweet finish. It drinks like a vodka, but contains nuances of the Blue Weber agave, most notably cut grass, white pepper, lemon sorbet, spices and the earthy sweetness of agave syrup.

Crystal Head have filled this elixir into a highly collectable jet-black version of their famous skull-shaped bottle. With its luxurious black finish, it looks like it has been carved from Onyx, a powerful warrior crystal thought to combine all colours of the spectrum, bestow courage, aid creativity and absorb negativity. We’re already feeling pretty positive that Crystal Head Onyx will make an incredibly dark centrepiece to our Hallowe’en and Day of the Dead festivities.

The cult Canadian brand Crystal Head – who describe themselves as “vodka for the creative spirit” – have created something unlike anything else on the market. But what more would you expect from a multi-award-winning vodka owned by Hollywood actor Dan Aykroyd and celebrated artist John Alexander?
