Suco de Rustica - Rustica Tabaco Nasal Spray

Tabaco juice is a revered traditional medicine among indigenous people, widely utilised by shamans and healers across continents. Traditionally inhaled through the nose from the palm of the hand, we have modernised this ancient practice by delivering the medicine in the form of a nasal spray.

Our potent liquid Rustica extract is administered via a nasal sprayer, a method we have perfected over many years. We proudly present a variety of liquid Rapé and Tabaco nasal sprays, including our smooth and powerful Suco de Rustica, made from the highest quality Peruvian Rustica leaves and extracted using advanced high-frequency resonance extraction. To learn more about this extraction method, read here. A small percentage of bio alcohol ensures an almost unlimited shelf life.

Suco de Rustica liquid extract is available in 11 ml amber glass bottles with a nasal spray dispenser. We also offer 22 ml refill bottles (without sprayer). To use, apply one or two sprays in each nostril, holding the sprayer at an angle aimed towards the center of the head. Slightly breathing in through the nose enhances the entry into the sinuses. Treat each nostril separately, as they have distinct properties: the left side expels negative energy while the right side receives positive energy, balance, and health. Allow the fluids to exit by blowing your nose, and spit out any remains rather than swallowing them. It is recommended to keep the body upright and avoid lying down after application.

The distinct aroma and strength of Rustica juice are immediately noticeable, producing a sensory explosion in the center of the face. Rustica juice sharpens focus and presence, providing powerful grounding and silencing mental chatter. It has a profound cleansing effect on the sinuses and opens both the heart and mind.

Our Rustica Nasal Spray, created with advanced high-frequency resonance extraction, represents the forefront of herbal extraction technology. It offers a potent, pure, and versatile product that excels in both quality and innovation, providing users with a deeply grounding and spiritually enriching experience.

Mapacho is one of the most traditional and most wholesome plants of the Amazon. It is used alone by shamans that specialised in Tabaco (tabaqueros) or it is used in combination with other plants, like Ayahuasca. Another traditional Tabaco use is the use of singa, or Tabaco liquid. Singa is often applied during initiations, crises, and rituals, where it can be snuffed, drunken, or spit over the body of a sick person with according chants. Moreover, singa has sedative or narcotic effects that help to induce a trance state, and in addition, to suck out evil spirits and illnesses in patients.

Shamans that use singa either drink it or snuff the liquid to induce strong visions, like shamans of the Montaña and Guyana region where a tobacco liquid is taken for magico-religious ceremonies. Yet, every tribe has their own particular ways of using and preparing singa, some mix it with other ritualistic plants, like Ayahuasca or Maikoa (Brugmansia), and in other tribes, like the Coto Indians of Peru, only shamans are allowed to snuff singa, whereas other male tribe members are only allowed to drink the juice. The Jivaro of the Montaña became very sophisticated in drinking and preparing Tabaco juice to envision and to communicate with the earth and its spirits (Grimal 1965). Moreover, the Jivaros drink singa during initiations, vision quests, war preparations, and during witchcraft and even female tribe members are allowed to use singa. The Guyana Indians squeeze and steep the leaves in water. Then the liquid can either be drunken or snuffed, depending on their gender: female tribe members drink, whereas male members tend to inhale the liquid. The Tukanos of Columbia and Brazil use singa only during shamanistic rituals, and apply the liquid solely to shamans or apprentices to cause vomiting and eventually narcosis. Some tribes also boil the Tabaco water down into a concentrate and, sometimes they add a thickened Casava starch to the brew in order to get a thick Tabaco paste. This Tabaco paste is licked from the fingers or from a stick. Either way, the strong liquid brings the user very quickly into somnolence and evokes a strong physical reaction, including trembling, vomiting, and nausea, which is considered indispensable to clean and purify the body and mind.

The shamans in the Ecuadorian Montañas drink Tabaco juice to communicate with the spirit world and they inhale Tabaco water to call the Tabaco spirit and ask for help to treat illnesses and relieve hostile energies or supernatural forces. Tobacco shamans from the Campa, drink concentrated Tabaco juice to communicate with and ask for support of spirits during ecstatic trance states. The Tabaco drink allows the shaman to ease the suffering of sick people and of people that have been attacked by dark shamans or evil spirits. Moreover, tribes like the Jivaros use Tabaco juice for several medicinal purposes, including the treatment of indisposition, chills, pulmonary problems, and snake bites.

Rustica and Mapacho tobacco is several times stronger than our usual tobacco and should be used with caution. It can cause nausea, vomiting, trembling, increased heartrate, and mind-altering effects. Be careful when swallowing the juice, it is highly intoxicating when consumed in high doses!
