Clarity
Clarity is a unique Katukina home-made Rapé blend and is one of its kind. The name Clarity date back from 2012 when we first started experimenting and creating our own blends. It has become the most popular and praised blend we have made so far. Clarity is composed of a mixture of three types of Kuntanawa Rapé, Pau pereira ashes, Mapacho tobacco and countless sacred and secret aromatic ingredients and essences, the most prominent of which are several aromas from the Mint family (Lamiaceae) and Cacao. During the creation it is infused with the intention of unlimited clarity of mind and full awareness of the present, giving rise to its name ‘Clarity’. It carries an ethereal sparkling fresh and yet pungent earthy flavor that will leave a deep odor memory trace, and a uniquely sweet chocolate aftertaste. This Rapé is the first of our own creations, then came Orchid Fever and Pineal Flush. This version of Clarity is of the the first batch we ever made.

Orchid Fever
This one of a kind, unique and a famous Rapé blend. This Rapé is beautiful addition to our own collection, along side Clarity and Pineal Flush. Orchid Fever is a preparation from our very own alchemical kitchen. Orchid Fever is in its self a unique preparation using fresh Vanilla pods. The exact composition will remain a secret however the connoisseur will most likely identify some of the exquisite aromas. Its uplifting flavor and pleasant aroma with powerful effects, leaves a divinely flavored aftertaste and a subtle but unique feeling afterwards. Watering of the eyes is almost instantaneous but with little or no physical purging noticeable. A wide range of floral effects during and afterwards can be attuned to and with clear, well prepared intention, this Rapé can be divinely healing and immensely calming in any situation. Orchid Fever is now sold out and only available in this set.

Pineal Flush
Another famous non-tribal Rapé. Pineal Flush is an overwhelmingly strong and aromatic blend that has some of the most powerful varieties of traditional Rapé as its basis. A powerful fusion of tribal Rapé's from sources far apart. It contains many additional ingredients such as Peruvian and Brazilian Rustica Tobacco, and the essence of Tonka beans, Vanilla and Menthol. The connoisseur may be able to distinguish other sacred and secret ingredients contained in this mind expanding Rapé that smells sweet, yet literally hits the brain with a velvet hammer. Pineal Flush is infused with the intention to flush ones geometric centre with forceful, yet lush detoxification and healing, and to re-align with one's higher self. The exotic and flavorful composition exerts wonderful effects on the senses and leads to an overall sensitization. Moreover, Pineal Flush supports a washing of negative energies, a balancing of thoughts, and provides a state of deep grounding and equilibrium. Pineal Flush is now sold out and only available in this set.

Ceremony
Ceremony is new unique Rapé that imparts deep glowing emanations through ones being. It is not as sharp on the sinuses as other Rapé's but imparts a deep persisting bodily effect. Ceremony ignites a deep warmth in one sinuses and it radiates into ones very being and consciousness. This dry heat does not burn or hurt and the impact is not sharp or slicing. Instead it emanates a deep glow something akin to the experience of being near to and staring into the glowing logs in the centre of a fire. Watering from the eyes occurs shortly after application. One is not jolted into the now but is captured by the radiating pulses of warmth that permeates every cell in the body. Then you are here, now. Like the afterglow of a powerful ceremony it is grounding, deeply calming yet lifting and expansive. A space to meditate, to expand. One can ride the pulses of warmth as the effects persist for some time after use! This Rapé keeps one quietly in one's chair for 15 minutes, glowing in beauty. Some have reported that this Rapé activates their light body creating an experience that can be tangibly felt in ones aura. Ceremony is a blend of the traditions of two tribes, it consists of Rustica Tabacco from the northeast of Brazil that imparts an almost spicy flavor. The base of the blend is a Tsunu recipe following Yawanawa tradition, the ash come from Acre, and it is enriched with ashes of a sacred tree originating from Pernambuco. The producer is a neo-shamanic student of the plants, who lives in Acre, Brazil and follows the traditional ways and uses only traditional ingredients.

Huichol Tagetes
A forceful and very aromatic Rapé that has the tendency to make the eyes water and to leave one in a very clear state of mind. It has a refreshing effect on the mind and leaves the user in focus and contentment. The aroma of the Tagetes herb clears thinking, relieves tension, aids emotional control. This is a special North-South Rapé blend, a meeting of ancestral cultures. This meeting of shamanic cultures has been happening on many levels. There is the Camino Rojo, the Red Path from Mexico where we one finds the meeting of the Condor and the Eagle. In this meeting of cultures and traditions one finds a meeting of ancestral medicines, Yawanawa partaking of Peyote in the desert, Huicholi Marakame drinking Ayahuasca in the forest and so on. This exchange has been happening since time immemorial: the North American Natives taking Peyote way north, in Brasil the costal Guarani had a trail that stretched out for thousands of kilometers to the Amazon where they walked for months to work with the sacred Ayahuasca. Even the Huicholi themselves had to walk half way through Mexico from the coastal regions where they lived into the Wirikuta desert to their inner sanctum to find their Hikari or Peyote.

Nukini Floresta
A famously popular Rapé. Differing from many other tribes, the Nukini charge the women with making and collecting the sacred Rapé. Therefore, the Nukini Floresta carries a powerful feminine energy and a pleasant and perfumed scent. One of the new ingredients in this blend is Eucalyptus. Its fragrant and flowery odors will provide a deep emotional journey and a meditative mindset that can be perfectly used for balancing and grounding. Its effect is highly uplifting and intensely cleansing: all negative energies and emotions can be washed out and a complete new balance on emotional, spiritual, and physical levels can be perceived. The physical cleansing will start with cleaning throat, sinuses, and head. Often minimal residues will be left in the back of the throat, it is important to spit out and remove all remnants once the effect has resided, as with all Rapé’s. This helps to visualize the cleansing process. If the intention is present, clarity and cleansing will continue beyond weeks or months after using Nukini Floresta.

Apurina Floresta
This Rapé produces a beautiful, yet sometimes mild effect, with the traditional green jungle overtones. The scents of the forest blend together to create one of the finest of Rapé's. A deeply pleasant aroma with a fresh and heightened awareness. Apurina generally is made with Awiri, a special green tobacco that grows wild along the rivers. Because it grows close to the river this Rapè can only be made in the dry season and for that reason is quite rare and special. The tobacco is not fermented nor heated to grind it, so it is considered a raw, living Rapé. Frequent users of the grey Rapé types will most likely find it "unnoticeable" in small quantities. Yet when used in a fresh state of awareness and with a clear channel the Apurina has an intense sharp slicing quality not unlike the Nunu from the Matses tribe. This Floresta has a more flowery scent and literally smells like being in the middle of the jungle. Very opening and deeply subtle. Similar to the other Apurina blends, yet with a more flowery aftertaste.

Katukina Cumaru
This genuine Katukina Rapé is rare. A unique and highly praised powerful Rapé from a friend in the Katukina tribe from deep inside the jungle, in a village in the Tarauaca municipality. It was blended by a Pajé elder and his son. Rapé is part of their long ancestry and in general they tend to administer this medicine to themselves daily, usually in large amounts. Its said that the Katukina commune with the spirit of the Tobacco to discover cures for their patients who travel vast distances to receive direct healing from them. Cumaru is applied mainly to cure a sickness of the body. Contains also Tabaco Corda and Moi, and ash of Tsunu tree bark. At low doses Cumaru is still fully active and powerful. The physical and mental effects are very strong and can overwhelm the user if care is not taken. This Cumaru has a strong and powerful flavor and the eyes water immediately. Especially in the first moments. The Rapé is darker in colour than most due to the ashes of the Tonka bean tree bark and has a beautiful scent akin to the Tonka beans' own flavor. Cumaru easily finds its way into the back of the throat and purging is likely. A deeply grounding and earthing experience.

Matzes Nunu
This distinctive and potent snuff is not called Rapé. It is called Nunu, and is composed by the Matsés tribe, which are also known as the Mayoruna (the Quechan word for ‘river people’) and live in the amazon at the border of Brazil and Peru, on both sides. Through the sharpening of all senses, due to its powerful slicing effect the user of this snuff can experience subtle fragrances of the deep jungle and literally sense the forest and its spirits. Apart from hunting, Nunu can also be used to clear sinuses and blockages within the head, and often finds a ritualistic use during Ayahuasca ceremonies or during Kambo ceremony. Moreover, this snuff carries a divinely masculine spirit that will bring deep grounding, clear focus, and a strong aiming of your mind. Users of grey Rapé types may need to administer much larger doses of Nunu to have the required effect as the indigenous would use our equivalent to a tea spoon amount per administration. At these levels Nunu can be extremely powerful leaving the user in a highly mediative state. As with all non grey types powder can easily find its way into the back of the throat and some purging may occur.
