Crystal Head Aurora Vodka is a Canadian vodka that combines a neutral grain spirit with a distinctive filtration process and a strong visual identity. Produced by Crystal Head Vodka, it is made from English wheat and distilled multiple times before being filtered through Herkimer diamonds, a type of quartz crystal. This filtration method is a defining part of the production, intended to refine the spirit without the use of additives.
The "Aurora" edition is inspired by the natural light phenomenon of the Northern Lights, with the liquid reflecting that theme through its presentation, though the production method remains consistent with the original expression. The brand itself was co-founded by actor Dan Aykroyd, and has built its identity around a combination of purity claims and distinctive design. It is positioned as a premium vodka, with an emphasis on filtration and ingredient transparency rather than flavour infusion or ageing.
