Jacq & Jürgen Set of 6 Mexican Shot Glasses, Handmade Clay Jarritos with Jaguar Design for Tequila and Mezcal
An artist never stops creating. Don Pablo, a master craftsman from Mochitlán, Guerrero, Mexico, brings part of Mexican folklore to life with this unique hand-painted clay jarrito. Each piece begins with a custom clay mold and takes around 30 minutes to complete, resulting in a beautiful and meaningful design. Why a Jaguar Design? The jaguar, known to the Olmecs as Tepeyollotl (Heart of the Mountain), has inspired ancient civilizations for centuries. In Mexican tradition, the jaguar represents both the night sky and the depths of the Earth. Its eyes symbolize the night, while its spots mirror the stars. The jaguar has long embodied strength, courage, and the power of transformation. In Mexica history, the jaguar was tied to legends of gods such as Tezcatlipoca and Quetzalcoatl, symbolizing rebirth and new eras. Jaguar warriors, elite members of the Aztec army, drew inspiration from its bravery, while even kings consumed jaguar broth as a ritual of fearlessness and strength. Today, in San Nicolás Zitlala, Guerrero, young men honor this tradition by wearing jaguar costumes in ritual dances to welcome the rainy season. The jaguar remains so important that it is proudly displayed in the state shield of Guerrero. Each Jaguar Jarrito is more than drinkware—it is a symbol of culture, courage, and timeless artistry. Add it to your collection and enjoy tequila, mezcal, or any beverage with a true piece of Mexican heritage.
