Process & Production

Crystal Head Lunar uses the brand’s Original Vodka as its foundation. The vodka is crafted from locally sourced Canadian corn and distilled four times into a neutral grain spirit. It is then blended with pristine water from Newfoundland, Canada.

The vodka is filtered seven times, with three of those filtration stages passing the spirit through layers of semi-precious quartz crystals known as Herkimer diamonds. Crystal Head produces its vodka without added sugar or other additives intended to enhance or mask the spirit's natural character.

The Lunar Year of the Horse edition contains the same Crystal Head Original Vodka while presenting it in a specially decorated 700ml skull-shaped bottle created specifically for Lunar New Year 2026. The edition was released in select markets and limited quantities.
