This has got to be one of the best commercials I've ever seen! I don't like vodka...but I do now :-) To think they filtered it through diamonds is amazing. Let me know if this is inappropriate to post here and I'll delete it. Just had to show someone this skull bottle. Listen to Dan Aykroyd's story too. Amazing!! http://www.crystalheadvodka.com/
Awesome share Joe! Dan Aykroyd came to our town and was signing these at a Wine Emporium we have here - wish i had gone. How much do these cost? think I will have to break down and get one. Great video - thanks for sharing with us. definitely appropriate I would say.

I'm glad there was no offensive thoughts here for posting an adult beverage. We called up a store that carries this, they quoted a price of $56.00. That's a little high, but, I must...I must. So a buddy is picking one up for me tonight. I will soon know what a jolly roger really feels like. :-)
This would make a great gift or part of a collectors item. Good find. Thanks for sharing it.

Yes, you guessed it...I have mind. Haven't opened it yet. I paid $47.00 for it, and it was the last one in the store. Ebay has matching shot glasses, $30.00/per2. I have a little story to tell about the bottle I got, but I'm pressed for time right now, so I'll post the story & pictures tonight. Wish we all could share a toast together. My first drink, I will toast Angels&Ghost and it's members.
Well, I cracked the seal tonight. I'm on my 3rd drink. The 1st one was straight in a small glass. Now I know why I don't drink vodka. It was smooth going down but went down better mixed with raspberry flavored Gatorade.
Funny little story: I gave my buddie the money and he was going to pick it up from the liquor store, his wife works near there. He has a cat that drinks from the faucet every morning for the last 8+ years. The morning he had the crystal head bottle, the cat was nowhere to be found. Jim thought this was very odd and started looking for him. He found the cat hiding in the basement. I told Jim, it was the power of the skull, we laughed about that. Then he showed me the receipt of purchase to prove to me the cost of the bottle. After looking at the receipt, he pointed out the birth date of purchaser. We both looked at each other with surprise and said, "Wooohhh!! That is too weird"
Here's the receipt. Look at the birthdate and tell me this isn't something from the twilight zone, lol!
