When you use this set to make rich Mexican hot chocolate, you’re collaborating with the Mexican artisans who make each piece. The chocolate is blended with nuts and spices in Oaxaca, the hand-molded jug gets a traditional stone polish, and nearly 5 decades of woodcarving experience go into the intricate “molinillo” stirring stick.

• Jug: (Diam) 4.5” x (H) 9”, 2 liter capacity, hand-molded clay. Lead free.
• Molinillo: (L) 13”-14”, alder wood
• Chocolate: 5 disks
• Artisanally made in Mexico
• Care:
  Hot Chocolate Jug: Curing recommended. To cure, fill with cool water below rim & heat on stove to warm water for 10 minutes. Allow water and pot to cool and it is ready to use.
  Traditional Large Molinillo: Hand wash with warm soapy water.

This jug is a cooking vessel, and not recommended as a water pitcher as the terracotta clay will sweat. The condensation that collects on the outside is normal, and does not imply that the jug is leaking.
