Inspired by the culture of Mezcal and the traditional jicara, as well as the good fortune of meeting local artisans, we are now proud to be importing these unique symmetrical clay copitas handmade by artisans from Southern Mexico. These traditional, hand-carved ceramic coptas are used to share and enjoy the unique and complex characters of Mezcal. The mandala like designs are hand carved and painted by local Zapotec artisans. The shapes all hold various meanings in the Zapotec culture. Each one is handmade, uniquely perfect in its own way and sure to impress those who matter most. The ceramic is coated with a natural glaze to avoid any mezcal leaking through. Each copita comes with a natural handmade fiber base.
