Chamba or Anador is a traditional herbal healer used against many different ways, is has been used in teas and herbal baths by the tribal people of the region, it has been used in ceremonies as well. The relaxing effect of this Rapé reflects as well in the Rapé making it a nice calm Rapé good for meditation and calming the spirit.

This Rapé is similar in effects as the Kuntanawa Força but has its own deeper tonality. It has extremely powerful after effects, in small or large doses. The duration of the initial onset lasts just a few moments, yet a deep "in the clouds" effect may be lasting for some time afterwards. Clear positive affirmations and a calm space in which to take this Rapé are advised. As with most Rapé’s some powder tends to make its way into the throat, however this preparation causes little phlegm build up and the tendency to purge is minimal, but possible. Inexperienced users may find some nausea and physical discomfort.

This is a highly praised Rapé made from traditional ingredients obtained from the Kuntanawa, yet mixed in a new post shamanic fashion by a magician who understands the respect and honour needed to work with these plant spirits.

This is an extremely fine and dry powder. It takes great effort to produce such a fine powder at a 150 micron fineness. This is our standard. All our products are processed to a high standard and consistent fineness and dryness, using laboratory grade sieves and dehydrating equipment.

Other names: Kuntanawa Chambá, Chamba, Anador.

Like the Nukini, the Kuntanawa tribe became almost extinct due to the massacres of the latex cycle. One single family was left after the rubber boom and only since the beginning in 2000 a small group of Kuntanawa started to claim their indigenous heritage (Pantoja et al. 2014; Labate et al. 2014). Unfortunately, their culture is still under threat and the Kuntanawa are still struggling to regain full ethnic recognition and they are trying to regain their territory. Nowadays, there are only about 250 members left that are scattered throughout the region of Acre, Brazil. In order to survive, the Kuntanawa are joining other Pano linguistic tribes and they are organizing festivals together to share their traditions, their rituals, and their culture with foreign visitors. This small Pano linguistic tribe strongly values the ritualistic use of Ayahuasca to teach them and to guide them. The Kuntanwa even hold a strong believe that Ayahuasca will unravel their ancient knowledge and bring back their partly lost traditions (Pantoja et al. 2014). However, their language seems to be irrecoverably lost (Labate et al. 2014).

Organic Moy Tabaco and Sapota ashes form the basis of this Rapé.
