Crystal Head Onyx Vodka Gift Set
Canada | 750mL | 40% ABV (80 proof) | Vodka | Gift Set — Crystal Head Onyx Vodka Gift Set pairs the brand's third expression — created by actor Dan Aykroyd and artist John Alexander, "made by creatives for creatives" — with four matching black skull shot glasses. Onyx, launched in 2020, is distilled in Newfoundland from Blue Weber agave sourced from a single Mexican farm, blended with Newfoundland water and filtered through 10,000+ Herkimer diamonds. No oils, sugars or additives — sugar-free, gluten-free, 70 calories per serving. The warrior crystal in glossy black, celebrated as a protector that absorbs negativity. Available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor in San Diego, CA.
Onyx drinks like vodka but carries the nuances of Blue Weber agave (per Aykroyd): the official notes open with fresh green grass, nuanced white pepper and hints of citrus on the nose; the palate is soft and smooth with a touch of spice and sweetness, developing into the subtle yet unmistakable earthy grip of agave; the finish is medium — green grass, pepper and citrus, clean and semi-sweet. For tequila drinkers curious about agave in a new form, and for anyone gifting, the black skull and matching shot glasses make the statement.
