Jícara comes from the Nahuatl word "Xicalli", meaning “a container made from a fruit.” In México, the dried shell of this fruit from the Crescentia Cujete tree dates back to prehispanic times. The jícara is used as a drinking vessel for traditional beverages such as hot chocolate, pulque and of course, mezcal.

The Sons of Mezcal jícaras were handmade by a local artist outside of Oaxaca City. Each set of jícaras posses unique touches, making each one slightly different and special from one another.
