These artisan mezcal cups are made of natural red clay (barro rojo) by a cooperative of women living in San Marcos Tlapazola, Oaxaca, Mexico. San Marcos Tlapazola is a rural Zapotec village of about 1,100 people about an hour outside of Oaxaca City, Mexico. For 20 generations, the village has specialized in making cookware & tableware out of the red clay found in that region by the potters who are all women. Because they are handmade, no two pieces are exactly the same. They measure approximately 1.5 in diameter & about 1.25 high & hold around 1 to 1.5 ounces of liquid.

Clay is porous & will absorb any liquid that it comes in contact with.
