Pineal Flush 9.0 - An Iconic Rapé Blend Returns - Refined, Aromatic, and Forcefully Clearing

Function and Composition

Pineal Flush 9.0 marks the ninth evolution of one of our most beloved and enduring non-tribal Rapé blends. First created in-house over a decade ago, Pineal Flush 1.0 was among the earliest Rapé blends ever made available outside Brazil, at a time when the medicine was virtually unknown beyond the forest and nowhere to be found in online stores. That changed with the arrival of Katukina.com, whose pioneering efforts helped introduce sacred Amazonian snuff to a wider audience. Since then, Pineal Flush has remained one of the most appreciated blends in our entire offering, known for its straightforward strength, cooling clarity, and broad accessibility.

This latest version is, again, a true masterpiece, blending Brazilian Arapiraca, Sabia, and Mói Tabaco with the ashes of Sapota, Mulateiro, Murici, Parika, and Samauma. Compared to version 8.0, which was light-grey, uncomplicated, and soft, Pineal Flush 9.0 has a slightly more rustic character, stronger Tabaco presence, and a subtle clove-like warmth. Though simple at first glance, its effects are deep, smooth, and harmonically expansive. This Rapé supports a thorough cleanse of the sinuses due to the refreshing Menthol.

Energetic and Ceremonial Effects

Pineal Flush 9.0 is powerful yet straightforward and steady, and opens with a sharp and immediate sensation in the sinuses. Cool, clean, and awakening. This rapidly shifts into a warming and spacious clarity behind the eyes and chest, followed by a full-body grounding that leaves the user centered and calm. Mentally, it clears intrusive thoughts and helps re-center focus; energetically, it acts like a wind sweeping through stagnant fields. It is an energetic reset.

It is advised to hold the powder in as long as possible until it naturally runs out of the nose. If any powder reaches the throat, the experience can be concluded by bringing it up and spitting it out. A unique afterglow may linger for about 15 minutes. This Rapé is ideal for experiencing in a meditative state, allowing the effects to be observed in quiet contemplation.

This is a Rapé of contrast: sharp but soft, simple but vast, strong but forgiving.

Aromatic Continuity — The Signature of Pineal Flush

As with every version since its inception, Pineal Flush 9.0 continues the signature aromatic infusion that defines this blend. Tonka beans, Emburana seeds, Vanilla pods, Cloves, and Menthol are once again delicately added, enhancing both the sensory and energetic profile. This familiar combination offers a sweet, balsamic, and spicy fragrance that uplifts the spirit, sharpens the senses, and amplifies the blend’s clearing power. The result is unmistakable: a velvet-like aromatic force, fresh on the nose, cold behind the eyes, expansive in the mind, and deeply rooted in the body. Connoisseurs will recognize its unique signature immediately.

A Legacy Blend in the Trinity Series

Pineal Flush is one of our three signature blends, together with Clarity and Orchid Fever. Known collectively as the “Trinity,” these three were developed over many years of refinement and continue to stand as pillars of our Rapé range. Each offers a distinct energetic pathway: Clarity clears the vision, Orchid Fever awakens the heart, and Pineal Flush resets the centerline of perception.

This blend is a product of continual evolution, respect for the craft, and trust in the subtle teachings of plant intelligence. It remains one of the most requested and appreciated Rapés in our entire catalogue, and cherished by first-timers and seasoned practitioners alike.

A Living Continuum of Memory and Intention

Since the very first iteration of Pineal Flush, we have honored a unique tradition: as a final alchemical blessing, we mix 9 grams of the previous version into the final stage of each new batch. This means that version 9.0 carries within it traces of every Pineal Flush that came before it, from the original 1.0 onward. In this way, the blend becomes a living continuum of memory, intention, and energetic lineage, an unfolding circle that never breaks.

Arapiraca Tabaco

A dark, full-bodied Tabaco with deep grounding and steady presence, Arapiraca lends structure and strength to this blend. Its earthy base anchors the clearing effect of the ashes while supporting mental silence and emotional stillness. It is a foundational element that enhances body connection and ritual focus.

Sabia Corda Tabaco

Sabia is a nearly black, rope-twisted Tabaco known for its potency and clarity.

Samauma Ashes

Samauma, the “Queen of the Forest,” brings ethereal light and expansion to the blend. Its ashes are linked with spiritual elevation, breath, and insight. In Pineal Flush, Samauma adds a lifting, luminous quality that opens space in the energetic body. To read a detailed article on Samauma ashes, click here.

Breath Practice

For best results, remain seated and grounded after use. Inhale slowly through the mouth and allow the breath to rise gently. Hold for a few seconds, then exhale softly, dropping the belly and letting the breath exit fully. Repeat this wave-like cycle several times to support integration and realignment.

On the Use of Affirmation

Though powerful, Pineal Flush responds best to stillness and presence. Use it during meditation, after energetic shifts, or in preparation for sleep and introspection. Let the breath carry your intention, and allow the medicine to reveal what wants to be cleared or realigned. Read more about affirmations here.

Setting the Standard for Ultra Fine Rapé

We take great care to reprocess all received stock to ensure the finest quality powder. Tabaco and ashes often vary in texture, as professional sieving equipment is rarely available at the source. To address this, we meticulously refine every batch, removing rough particles and fibrous material through multiple passes with laboratory-grade 150-micron sieves. Combined with precise dehydration, this process results in an exceptionally smooth, effective, and easy-to-use Rapé. We uphold this standard because it consistently offers the most comfortable and reliable Rapé experience.

Reports from our customers:

"...From the day I started to order Rapé at Katukina I had this special blend in sight. The name aroused interest in me. Today I tested the latest batch of this blend, together with my wife. Two small spoons as a fixed dose. A strong entry, and stab, but a surprising immediate after-effect. A very fresh and sultry scent and sensation. Very little mucus and even a few tears. A particularly lightening effect for the head. The nose opens and the thoughts become completely clear. This Rapé does not drop to the stomach or deeper regions and does not cause discomfort such as vertigo or nausea. A gentle smile unfolds on my mouth and in the heart. This Rapé is a very good tool if the head is too heavily loaded and you do not see things clear anymore. After working out the first effects, I opened my eyes and I got a more sunny look at everything, everything seemed much lighter and brighter, also warmer. With my wife the Rapé went to the thymus and did a gentle healing job there. Generally speaking, a soft Rapé, which provides a very fine loving experience with a strong presence in the pineal gland, the seat of the deeper (in)sight. The choices of the composition is also worth mentioning, because the scents are truly divine. I have not yet encountered these odours in other Rapé experiences. Although I could smell mint, but also a warm sultry deep smell that I recognise when I made the 'mother medicine' in Peru together with the Maestro's. An intense odour vibration, which is activated even more if you take a short break in the fresh air and smell the smells. A real asset to my collection..."

"...This blend is very powerful. Immediately flush out negative energies through purging. Eyes, nose and throat is working. A higher dose gives even more flush. You are in for a deep cleanse. Long effect and high vibration..."

"...My favourite Rapé in the whole world. Strong energy and a very strong focus on the 3rd eye makes Pineal Flush my favourite to work with. I am waiting for this one since a long time. I would be very happy to order very soon again!..."
