Kuntanawa Forca
This highly praised Força Rapé is a blend of two Rapé’s. A combination of Kuntanawa Samauma and Nukini Força, two of the most powerful varieties of Rapé commonly used. The intention and focus of this wonderful blend is healing of the emotional body. A balanced blend of male (Samauma) and female (Nukini) energies combined gives a strong but nurturing effect. Doses at any size produce a powerful experience with feelings of mental release as dissolution of thoughts occurs almost instantaneously. As with all Força’s a tendency to purge is minimal. Watering of the eyes and a sometimes intense flavor can cause a deep reaction and take some time to stabilize from however. Força has, over many years of use through out the west become the standard form of Rapé. This is a classic from a year ago and is no longer available. The last available bottles are in this set.

Katukina Menthol
Katukina Menthol is a new traditionally made Rapé using authentic tribal ingredients and ashes, and Menthol crystals taken to the Amazon by a friend travelling and learning with the Katukina peoples. Just the right amount of Menthol was used to produce this powerful preparation. Ingredients were obtained from the Katukina peoples and therefore we named this non-tribal blend "Katukina Menthol" Being of very high frequency itself, the cooling and slicing effect of this Rapé blend clears away all blockages built up by ones daily life. Menthol opens up the breathing channels allowing deep inhalations and greater oxygen intake. One may feel light headed or experience floating sensations with a medium to large dose. With smaller doses a general clearing and widening of the channels is experienced as well as an easy flow of fluids in the sinuses, resulting in release of phlegm via the nose and throat. It is advised to use this Rapé in moderation and only when needed.

Yawanawa Grey
This is a typically Grey Rapé blend with a powerful initial effect that takes a few minutes to stabilize from. Very comfortable overall. Yawanawá Grey has a typically uplifting and clearing frequency. Eyes will generally water and it is also much easier to remove from the channels than most other preperations. It can however make its way into the back of the throat. This blend is finely powdered and generally absorbs directly into the nose. Subtly powerful and a favorite amongst regular users of traditional Rapé blends. All the ingredients have been collected from the indigenous themselves.

Shawadawa Kapayuba
The Shawãdawa “People of the Macaw” prepare some of the most divine Rapé's available. This wonderful preperation is of extremely high frequency with subtle flowery tones and a clear sharpness which pierces the frontal lobes of the head and loosening all the screws in ones perceptions at the onset. Moments pass and a sudden excelleration into the present occurs after which the screws retighten and a new solid perception awaits. Barely any noticable phleghm is produced with mild doses, as being an extremely fine powder it almost completely aborbs into the passages. We are blessed to have obtained this Rapé from the Shawãdawa. An excellent Rapé to aid in deep grounding into the now. With great pleasure we are adding a new member to our family of tribes from Brazil: The Shawadawa, a tribe from the pano linguistic root, like families such as the Yawanawa, Poyanawa, Kaxinawa, Jaminawa, Deadawa, Kuntanawa and many others. Shawa means Arara, Macaw and Dawa means family so we are the family of the Macaw. The Arara is in the local indigenous tradition known as a messenger bird. The Shawadawa live around the upper Jurua river in four indigenous demarcated lands. Today the main objective of the Shawa people is to protect their lands and forests where all natural medicines are present. They are very driven to save, salvage and preserve their culture and the teachings of their ancestors. The use of sacred medicines brings them this study of healing and ancestral teachings. The use of Rupusuty, as they call Rapé in their language and tradition, has a very important meaning for the Shawadawa, it is the study of the medicinal plants that give the force to strengthen the spirit and the force to heal the material of the diseases of the flesh. To be a warrior in the forest it is necessary to know the medicines and its powers by doing the traditional diets. The stronger the medicine, the bigger the diet. The two new Rapé’s we offer from the Shawadawa, are made by a group of friends from the Shawadawa under the over seeing of Adeildo, one of the new generation members of his people who is very dedicated in saving what is left of the legacy, and is studying the language, traditions and medicines of his people. His mother, Dona Francisca is well known around Brazil as a herbal healer, a prayer and also a very respected traditional midwife having brought may in this world. Her mother recently passed away at a very respectable age of 114 years. Adeildo studies the plants in the tradition of his people but is also a long term member of the Santo Daime. This Rapé were made under the power of the full moon with natural Tabaco, Tsunu ashes and a herbal medicine from Shawa traditional use, known as Kapayuba. Kapayuba is a medicine applied for treating headaches, the flu, insomnia, mental disturbance and tiredness. It is used to give strength when working in the field planting, fishing and hunting. Kapayuba also has a spiritual study to it. The Shawadawa use it in the spiritual works with Ayahuasca to connect with the healing songs and also to do material and spiritual healing sessions. With this Rapé when using it for spiritual aims it is good to observe the diet, little or no salt or sugar to better feel the perceptions we have in our minds and understand the teachings of the medicine.

Kaxinawa Cumaru
A deeply intense and strong dark style Rapé containing Arapiraca Tobacco and Cumaru ashes. Cumaru is extremely grounding and has the ability to put the user into deep trance like states. It easily makes it way into the back of the throat, and in some occasions can cause deep nausea and detoxification. As with the Canela De Velho, purging is quite possible and the aftertaste although quite pleasant is extremely strong and can cause a continuous stream of phlegm in the throat. Intention and setting have an important role in the administration of this Rapé and one should take time and space to prepare for its effects. Dipteryx odorata is generally known as Cumaru or Cumaru Ferro, which translates as "Iron Cumaru". It has traditionally been used by the Huni Kuin or Kaxinawa as a good base for making ashes for Rapé. In general the woods or barks used for ashes are all of hardwood trees, it seems the harder the wood, the better the ash. The beans of the Cumaru tree are medicinal and are used also in food preparation and perfume as a substitute for Vanilla. This Rapé is prepared with strong Arapiraca Tabaco and with the ashes of the Cumaru that augment the strength of the Tabaco even more, making for a good power Rapé with a special kick hitting the right spot.

Shanenawa Morena
This is a most prestigious Rapé from the Shanenawa tribe, made from sweet scented plants, and what seems to be a milder and very balanced tobacco. This is one of the more energetically balanced Rapé’s that has strong but stable initial effects with pleasant after-tones and little production of phlegm. We are blessed to receive this from a very small tribe who usually do not make Rapé for people outside of the tribe. The Shanenawa are known to make 3 different types of Rapé within their tribe using a range of different plants and ashes. Two of the tribes peoples have been appointed by the chief to make Rapé, and continue the tradition. This is one of 10 different varieties of Rapé that were specifically made for us. A friend who was traveling the entire South Americas in 2015 has visited many different tribes and requested each tribe to make a special batch of their most reverred and powerful snuffs. After negotiating the contributions and the purpose and goals of this exchange it resulted in a promising benefit for all involved. Over time we were presented with a unique collection of genuine Rapés that were produced with the intention to be shared with a new and wide audience, worldwide. And to work towards a new future exchange of knowledge and medicines between cultures. This unique Rapé is one of its kind and comes from a new collaboration between cultures far apart.
