Since we started working more closely with chief Fernando from the Katukina tribe, we have been bringing a selection of fine Rapés from their community. Some more traditional and some innovative.

Now we bring this lovely minty blend, the Katukina Menta. It is made with a mixture of organic regional Moi Tabaco and the more potent Corda Tabaco and Tsunu ashes giving a well-balanced base. For the Mint they used a mixture of natural Mint leaves, menthol crystals and a dab of Mint essential oil for the final touch. In their opinion the natural Mint leaves give a nice beginning but what really activates it is the Menthol crystals, and the essence finishes it off leaving it just as it should be, not over minty that can burn your nose and not too little either. This one comes recommended!

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 because this provides the best Rapé experience. All our Rapé is processed to a high standard and consistent fineness and dryness, using laboratory grade sieves and dehydrating equipment, before packaging.

Katukina or Catuquina, Katokina, Katukena, Katukino are generic terms that are attributed to five linguistically distinct but geographically proximate indigenous groups that live in southwestern Brazil at the border of the Amazonas and Acre. The Katukina are a tribe that is very connected to the usage of sacred plants. They consider themselves as the first tribe to receive the Kambo medicine straight from the frog. They still carry a vast knowledge about plants and the spirit of the world. Their Rapé is strong and deep, and it carries the wild and powerful spirit of the jungle.
