Nukini Força Rapé – The Pulse of the Forest
Nukini Força is one of the most sought-after Rapé blends crafted by the Nukini people of Acre, Brazil. This sacred preparation is built around a secretive, time-honored recipe guarded by the women of the tribe for over 12 years. Deeply grounding yet refined in effect, Nukini Força reflects the spiritual integrity and feminine wisdom of its origin.
Complementing these core elements are five secret herbs and flowers, known only to the Nukini women who prepare it. Some of these herbs are known to be used by other tribes as well—in flower baths, to anoint the body for protection, or to soothe headaches and clear the mind. Their inclusion here reflects a deep intuitive knowledge of plant allies, woven into a medicine that acts on all levels. These sacred additions lend a light forest perfume and subtle harmonizing effect to the blend—one that is deeply felt, not just smelled. The recipe is intentionally protected, not to withhold knowledge, but to preserve its lineage. In the words of the tribe, "Each family must protect their own medicine."
Moi Tabaco – Grounding and Gentle Strength
At the heart of this blend lies Moi Tabaco—a Brazilian variety of Nicotiana rustica known for its gentler strength and body-centered clarity. Grown and cured using traditional methods, Moi is fermented and aged to develop its earthy aroma and calm, stable potency. Unlike stronger Tabacos that dominate a blend, Moi allows space for the other ingredients to shine. It offers a grounded, supportive base ideal for long ceremonies and gentle spiritual anchoring. You can find a comprehensive article about Tabaco de Moi here.
Tsunu Ash – Bark-Only Precision
The ash used in Nukini Força is made exclusively from the bark of the Tsunu tree (Platycyamus regnellii), a rarity even among traditional Rapé artisans. Bark-only ash results in a cleaner burn and a finer powder, rich in minerals yet smooth to the senses. It brings sharpness and light to the blend, clearing the sinuses and energetic field without excess heat. Using only the bark is a sign of respect and precision—a way of working with the tree that conserves its life while enhancing the medicine's integrity.
This is one of the last places where Tsunu ash is still prepared in the ancestral way—using bark only. While many claim to follow this practice, few truly do. The growing demand for raw ash has led to overharvesting, with entire trees now being burned for bulk production. The Nukini family responsible for Força have never sold ash separately and refuse to do so, preserving both the trees and the integrity of their Rapé.

Feminine Lineage and Energetic Quality
Nukini Força is prepared by the head female shaman of the tribe, a distinction that carries immense spiritual weight. In contrast to many other tribal traditions, it is the women of the Nukini who are tasked with the collection and crafting of Rapé. This feminine stewardship imparts a signature quality to their blends: floral without being light, balanced without dilution, and deeply regulating to both heart and mind.
You can feel it in the aroma—a perfumed, woodland clarity that lingers in the senses. And you can feel it in the effects. This Rapé doesn’t erupt; it expands. There is warmth in its intensity, and its afterglow is one of emotional restoration.
Energetic Profile and Application
Nukini Força offers a focused, upward-clearing movement paired with deep grounding in the body. Its energetic profile may support:
- Mental focus and spiritual alertness
- Subtle clearing of energetic congestion
- Feminine emotional intelligence and regulation
- Heart-warming calm and post-application peace
Physically, it is especially effective for clearing the sinuses and frontal cortex. Many users report a cleansing, warming sensation across the chest and midline, followed by a felt sense of "room being made inside." Despite its depth, this blend rarely induces purging. As always, it's best to remain upright and clear away remnants once the effects settle.
The Wisdom of the Nukini
The Nukini tribe—descendants of the Pano linguistic family—live in the upper reaches of Acre, a region of vibrant ecological and spiritual heritage. Though their population is small, their cultural resilience is profound. Women are central in the tribe’s healing traditions and Rapé production, shaping each blend with care, song, and lived wisdom.
The formula has resisted imitation for over a decade. While many have attempted to replicate Força, none have succeeded. This is not only due to the secret ingredients but to the spiritual agreement among the family: the recipe stays within their lineage. It is made today by the same elder who once taught others in the community how to prepare Rapé, working closely with his children and cousins.
The ingredients used are all hand-collected from their native environment: a land rich in medicinal flora and sacred waters. Whether applying this Rapé in silence or ceremony, you are receiving more than a blend—you are receiving a living expression of the Nukini forest and the guardians who walk it.

Stewardship and the Integrity of the Medicine
Some are of opinion that if more families had safeguarded their traditional recipes and refrained from commodifying the base materials, perhaps the global Rapé landscape would look different today. But in Nukini Força, we find a rare example of a medicine that has remained intact—protected not by secrecy alone, but by principle.
Nukini Força is not easily imitated. Though many have tried, its signature remains distinct. It is medicine kept alive through devotion, protection, and the quiet strength of women who remember.
Setting the Standard for Ultra Fine Rapé
We take great care to reprocess all received stock to ensure the finest quality powder. Often, Rapé arrives with varying levels of fineness due to the lack of professional sieves used by the tribe. To address this, we meticulously sieve all powders to remove rough bits and particles, resulting in an exceptionally smooth and effective powder at 150-micron fineness. We use laboratory-grade sieves and dehydrating equipment to achieve this quality. This is our standard because it provides the best Rapé experience.
