Description

When American portrait and sculpture artist John Alexander had an idea for a brand of tequila that would be presented in a crystal skull, he decided that man to bring this concept to life was film legend Dan Aykroyd (if you don't think he is, please either watch Blues Brothers and agree, or never speak to me again). However, while Aykroyd liked the the crystal skull aspect*, he suggested that the duo instead make vodka with no additives in Newfoundland, Canada.

Yep - this has to be the coolest for us; Crystals. Unique quartz crystals are known as Herkimer diamonds - the brand uses 10,000 of them, to be exact. So what does this have to do with price? Well, there is a mythical story also attached to the way the Vodka is processed - something to do with a special gemstone - the diamond. One attribute of the Crystal Glass Vodka pricing is the design of the bottle. The notorious skull shape, designed by John Alexander took over two years to manufacture by Bruni Glass, a Milan based company. The process involves electrically charged powders in a sealed and pressurised chamber and the defect rate is at 40%. Filtration - How it affects Quality and Price of VodkaWell, there is new age belief that quartz crystals encourage human healing and wellbeing while radiating positive energy.

We know what you might be thinking, vodka is a neutral spirit, why are there so many options out there? One of the final decisions that a recipe maker has is how they filter the liquid (if they decide to filter at all)& what water will they use to dilute the 95% ABV spirit to one of 40%. You may have seen it on the shelves at your local liquor store, or in the home of your punk-loving sister-in-law, the infamous Crystal Head Vodka - presented in the beautifully shaped bottle. You know, the one like a human skull? Belvedere Vodka Unfiltered, the “Whiskey Drinker’s Vodka” uses bakers grade Rye grain which is distilled four times. The liquid is not filtered at all, giving it a full & rich mouthfeel. Unfiltered Vodkas have the benefit of savoring the taste of the initial raw material - in this case giving a freshly baked bread, caramelized taste. If you’ve read our previous articles like From Grape To Potato – What On Earth Is Your Favorite Vodka Made From, you’ll have heard that the price of alcohol is typically a reflection of its processing methods. Which leads us to our next point on Crystal Head Vodka.To create a clean, quality vodka, Crystal Head uses only cream corn and peaches as base ingredients, which are distilled four times into a neutral grain spirit. This is then blended using pristine water from Newfoundland, before the vodka is filtered a further seven more times, three of which through layers of semi precious crystals known as Herkimer diamonds. There is nothing added to enhance or mask the taste at any point in this method. It may have crossed your mind as being marketed to the more sinister type of customer and perhaps a little high on price. Crafted by one of the sweetest and most tender corns ever developed, the ferment is distilled four times and blended with water from Newfoundland, Canada. Crystal Head Vodka is filtered seven times in total, with three of them being through the diamonds. To finish nothing extra is added to the Vodka. Let’s start off with Grey goose, your standard higher class vodka that appeals to the masses. The brand uses winter wheat that has been milled for 24 hours, and the liquid is distilled five times in a column still. Lastly, the Vodka uses calcium-rich water that is filtered through limestone.

I like to travel around the world and discover local brands of liquor. That’s the reason I can recommend all these authentic yet not well-known brands. I also provide up to date pricing and information on the most popular brands in the US. Related Posts Hi there, I am James Hart, an ex food and liquor photographer, who has a keen passion for different kinds of wines and liquors. Well, you’d be surprised just how many things a connoisseur could tell you about the taste of vodka.These two decisions will highly contribute to the mouthfeel of the final product which will also determine the price point.

The only experiments include those of consumers who have trialed the product both with and without the filtration through the precious gemstones. However, contrary to popular belief, the skull has deep spiritual meaning and just might be worth every penny. Not only is Vodka made from a wide range of raw materials, like wheat, rye, barley, potatoes or basically anything that contains starch and sugar, but it is distilled various times through either column or pot stills to create the desired outcome that the producer is seeking. Exceptional vodka is only part of the brand’s oeuvre, however. The striking bottle, (in the shape of a crystal skull, in case you’d somehow managed to forget that) is a key component, and Milan-based glass-manufacturer Bruni Glass are, as of now, the only team trusted to create the unique receptacle. The process they use begins by applying an electrical charge to the original bottle in a sealed chamber, which activates two metals in powder form and draws them to the bottle in a pressurised chamber, completely coating it. High temperature is then applied to melt the powder and create the iridescent metalized finish. This whole procedure is too specific to be replicated identically, so there can be no two bottles alike. The inspiration for Crystal Head Vodka was conceived in 2007 by it's founders, Dan Aykroyd (Actor) and John Alexander (artist).It is closely related to the legend of the Thirteen Crystal Skulls. This mystical story is based around positive energy, enlightenment, and spiritual power.From peppery to creamy, to brioche and vetegal notes, there's a world of flavor that can be extracted by someone with a trained palate. They’ll may also remark on what you mix with the vodka. It could complement or clash, kind of like peanut butter and jelly, or toothpaste and orange juice.
