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?
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!

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.

How to Season a New Clay Water Jug (Jarra de Barro o Botellon de Barro)
What you need: Clay jug (and lid), large bucket, clean water, non-abrasive scrubber, optional: vinegar, baking soda, or rice water.
Steps:
Clean: Rinse inside and out with water using a non-abrasive scrubber. Don’t use soap.
Soak: Submerge in water 12–24 hours to strengthen and seal pores.
Rinse Again: Scrub gently under running water; add baking soda or salt if needed.
Fill & Rest: Fill with fresh water, let sit a few hours, then empty. Some leakage is normal.
Dry: Wipe with a cloth and air-dry in a ventilated spot.
Tips:
Never use soap—just water and a scrubber.
Avoid sudden temperature changes to prevent cracks.
Clean regularly and store in a ventilated place.
White residue is normal mineral buildup—wipe with a dry cloth.
