Description
Crystal Head Onyx Vodka 70cl, 40% is a unique expression from Crystal Head, launched in 2020 and crafted from premium Blue Weber agave sourced from a single farm in Mexico. The official producer states that, like all Crystal Head expressions, it is blended with pure water from Newfoundland, Canada, giving the final spirit a clean and semi-sweet finish.
What makes this bottle especially attractive is that it brings a different raw material into the Crystal Head range. Instead of corn or wheat, Onyx is built on Blue Weber agave, while still keeping the brand’s additive-free philosophy with no oils, sugars or additives. The black skull bottle and matching debossed cap also give it a stronger shelf presence than a standard clear vodka bottle.
Why Choose Crystal Head Onyx Vodka 70cl, 40%
Crystal Head Onyx Vodka 70cl, 40% stands out because it offers something noticeably different from a typical grain vodka. The official tasting profile centres on fresh green grass, white pepper, citrus, soft spice, sweetness and the earthy grip of agave, which gives it a more distinctive identity than many neutral-style vodkas. It also benefits from the recognisable Crystal Head presentation, making it appealing both for drinking and for display.
Ideal For.
This bottle is ideal for vodka drinkers who want a cleaner, smoother spirit with more character than a standard neutral grain vodka. That is based on the official agave recipe, additive-free production and the published tasting notes.
It is ideal for premium cocktails and simple serves where the agave-led character can still show through. This is an inference based on the official flavour profile of green grass, pepper, citrus, spice and sweetness, together with the producer’s cocktail serve suggestions.
It is also ideal for gifting or for adding a striking black-bottle Crystal Head release to a serious spirits shelf. This is an inference based on the distinctive Onyx bottle design and the strong presentation-led identity of the release.

Collector’s Note
This bottle is not a scarcity-led collector vodka in the usual sense, but it does have strong display appeal. The black Onyx skull bottle gives it a much more dramatic shelf presence than the standard Crystal Head expressions, and the shift to Blue Weber agave makes it feel like a clearly defined chapter within the wider Crystal Head range.
Its appeal is therefore more about identity and presentation than rarity. For buyers who like distinctive modern spirits bottles, Onyx works well as both a drinkable premium vodka and a visually striking piece on a back bar or home shelf. This is an inference based on the official bottle design, the agave-based recipe and the absence of any confirmed fixed outturn in the reviewed sources.
