Yawanawa Mulateiro
Yawanawá Mulateiro exceeds most other Rapé's, in strength and intensity. Low doses are advised. This Rapé is a fine and flowing powder that has a dark grey appearance. It provides a sharp, powerful initial sensation that has a tendency to immediately make the eyes water. A large amount of power and energy can be felt in the first few moments with a subtle and peaceful after effect. The mind is released of thoughts and one is brought into a peaceful space with a high level of focus. Mulateiro ashes (Calycophyllum spruceanum) are considered to have anti aging as well as anti parasitical properties and are said to be used in Rapé to release tensions of the right and left cerebral lobes, thereby providing profound balance and equilibrium of mind and body. The ash of the cask of the Mulateiro tree is a powerful ash used to firm spiritual works, and is considered good for concentration. The Mulateiro bark is used for it’s rejuvenating qualities and for other medicinal use apart from it's use in Rapé.

Puyanawa Lourinho
Puyanawa Rapé is made with organic Moy Tabaco from the Jurua Region, Parica Ash and a herb called Lourinho. Parika is the ingredient that gives power and strength to this deep blend. There is no info to be found about Lourinho, it is a local name that the forest people use. Its exact scientific name is unknown. Lourinho is a plant with a lush fragrance that opens the nasal passages, while refreshing the mind and clearing the spirit. It is used for spiritual cleansing by the indigenous people of the region.

Kuntanawa Kapaxanba
Kapaxanba Rapé has been prepared by a member of the Kuntanawa tribe, who lives on the Jurua river close to the Peruvian border, on the river Tejos, a side river from the Jurua. This Rapé is prepared with a base of local organically grown Tobacco and ashes of Sapota, and Kapaxanba and Lourinho herbs. Sapota ash is a very little known ash, specific to the region. It is very gentle on the nose. Wonderful for the regular meditator for not clogging the nasal passages. The special character of this Rapé comes from the herb Lourinho that gives it a pleasant fresh smell. Lourinho is a plant used for spiritual cleansing, not only in Rapé but also in other medicinal and spiritual preparations. Apart from this it is very refreshing on the nasal passage, opening them up and easing breathing. Another local herb from the region used in this particular blend is Kapaxanba, also known as Samsara, that is great for headaches and has a very particular delicious smell. This exclusive Rapé is very aromatic, yet forcefully cleansing and liberating. With any size of dose, sneezing is likely to occur, which seems to be one of the main reasons that the head is cleared of the build up of negative energies, literally blasting out anything that has clogged the internal system. A light and meditive feeling can be experienced afterwards if time is taken to really feel it through. A great start to any shamanic ceremony one may be attending.

Shanenawa Floresta
This Rapé smells sweet and friendly. Yet, it is amazingly sharp, causing an immediate buzzing pain, and watering eyes. An excellent array of aromas are experienced, sweet, rustic, spicey, almost flowery. The initial strong sting subsides quickly. After cleaning the nose a hightened feeling can be noticed and a greater visual and mental focus. Although it looks like a semi brown Rapé, its energy is much like a typical grey Rapé. A high frequency with rich notes and not too heavy on the tobacco. No information was provided as for what ingredients were used in this complex Rapé blend. Origin: Brazil, Acre.
