My Tia in Guanajuato has a Botellon. I have great memories of her giving me water when I'd come in from playing on the farm! I remember LOVING the way the water tasted. It has a Pure taste. Always refreshing and cold. It's been years since I've last visited. I do miss the Motherland, so thank you very much for offering this fine product. I cured the outside of it with Beeswax, filled it with good drinking water and WOW same Great Taste!! I plan to purchase one for both my daughters and my sons, so that they too, can enjoy wonderful water and have a piece of our Mexican heritage!
Pros
- Family Heritage Heirloom, Pure Refreshing Water

First, I have to say, I just LOVE MexGocer! It is the only place I will order my Mexican clayware. They ship it ALL the way across the country and I haven't had one broken piece, not a chip, on anything I have ordered! Their packaging is unrivaled and they are simply THE BEST! This botellon is gorgeous and takes me back to my childhood. I will follow the other review on here about how to seal this (thanks to the the person who left that awesome tip) and will keep this in my bedroom. I miss drinking out of clay-the water is fresh , pure, and cool tasting. My entire house is a nod to my Mexican heritage so it fits in beautifully.

Does it or doesn't have lead?
August 15, 2021
I'm confused about the product. It says it's lead-free but further down there's a warning from the state of California that it does have lead. So which is it? I like the jug but I don't want to put my family's health at risk. Thanks!
Merchant Response:It's Lead Free!!

Very nice

Item arrived very quickly and was securely packaged. It was exactly what I was looking for. The only difference I noticed is that it did not have the clay taste I had come to enjoy. Other than that it is very nice.
Pros
- Size, paint, heft.

This is a little more ornate then I would have liked but it does not detract from its functionality.

Botellon con vaso
June 8, 2013
I own this awesome terracota water jug, and I will recommend soaking this jug with the mug overnight, so all the pores get sealed. Next day, let it air dry and rub either beeswax or unsalted butter all over except the inside of the mug and jug, let it absolve the beeswax or butter, and wipe it with a paper towel, and it's ready to use it for a long time.
Pros
- Water tastes great and keeps it cool for a long time.
Cons
- No dislikes

Tastes like my abuelitas water.
July 26, 2012
I bought one for myself and loved it so much. I live in Oklahoma now but I grew up in San Antonio Texas. The taste of the water from this botellon took me back to drinking my Abuelitas water that she kept in one while I was growing up. Everytime I drink my water now I feel closer to her spirit. I loved it so much I sent one to my Mom back in Texas. I highly recommend this product for anyone who wants to taste true authentic water.
Pros
- I liked the price. I liked the packaging. I also liked the fact that it is lead free.

Review for Botellon con vaso - barro sin plomo / Terracota Water Jug - Lead Free
August 8, 2011
Love the way it keeps my water chilled, I set it by my bedside. Had a strange dryness & smell at first, but got better the more I washed & soaked it. A bit larger than I expected, but over all I am satisfied. Thank You, Leola A.

It was nice to find lead free glazed Mexican pottery. I remember always finding one of these in My Nana's frig. How good the water taste. That is "earthy tasting" if you like that. It arrived with in the specified shipping dates and well packaged and comparing prices with other online shops this is a good price and remember always get lead free.
