Custom stamped ceramic copitas de mezcal u2014 2 oz stoneware, high-fire glazed, stamped with your initials, date, or logo before firing. Handmade mezcal barware built for gifting, wholesale bar programs, and home rituals that deserve the real thing.
Stoneware, high-fire glazed, and stamped with up to six characters on the interior base u2014 initials, a date, a word, a name. Each copita is wheel-thrown one at a time in a high-desert Colorado studio. The glaze colors run from deep cobalt to earthy warm brown, satin black to soft pink, and you choose the palette. No two come out identical. That’s the point.
The form is traditional: low, wide, open-lipped. About 2.75 inches across, 1.5 inches tall. That shape lets alcohol volatilize slowly off the surface, which concentrates smoky, vegetal aromatics in a way a shot glass never does. These are designed for sipping, not shooting u2014 for the kind of mezcal ritual that slows a table down.
These copitas work as mezcal gifts because they carry the weight of something made by hand, stamped with intention, and built to last. A set personalized with a name or date lands differently than anything pulled off a shelf. For gift buyers, that specificity does the work.
For bar programs, the custom stamp option lets you brand the interior base with a logo or mark u2014 an understated detail that guests notice when they lift the cup. Mezcaleru00edas, craft cocktail bars, and distillery tasting rooms have used this exact format to anchor their service experience. Wholesale pricing is available for large orders; contact directly for volume quotes and lead time.
At home, these sit well in the hand. The weight is right for slow pours of mezcal, tequila, sotol, or any agave-adjacent spirit. They hold 2 oz cleanly and feel grounded rather than precious u2014 the kind of barware that gets used, not stored.
Standard stamping fits up to six characters u2014 letters, numbers, or a short date u2014 pressed into the interior base before firing. For logos, symbols, or custom artwork, a stamp can be made from your image. That process takes approximately one week plus an additional two to four weeks for production. A one-time $30 stamp creation fee applies to custom image orders.
Glaze colors available: Deep Green, Cobalt Blue, Warm Brown, Golden Yellow, Satin Black, Shiny Black, Soft Pink, Clear White, Pansy Purple. Mix or match across a set u2014 note your preferences at checkout or send a message to coordinate the palette before production begins.
The word copita is a diminutive of copa u2014 a little cup. The form has been used to serve mezcal across Oaxaca and southern Mexico for generations. Low, wide, open u2014 it was designed around the spirit’s character, not convenience. There’s an old proverb: Para todo mal, mezcal, y para todo bien tambiu00e9n. For everything bad, mezcal. For everything good, the same. These copitas are made in that spirit.
The craft detail matters here. A stamped mark fired into stoneware isn’t decoration u2014 it becomes part of the vessel. It doesn’t fade, scratch off, or peel. Whatever you choose to stamp in the base will be there when the cup is passed around a table in ten years. That durability is what separates handmade artisan barware from everything else at this price point.
