New batch. Note: As with all Rapé, differences between batches are to be expected, for those used to this variety you will find this batch slightly different than you may be used to.

This exquisite Rapé, crafted by the Kuntanawa family, is distinguished by its use of Sabia Corda Tabaco, a variety known for its potent effects. Unlike the commonly used Moi Tabaco, which is typically associated with heart-centered energy and emotional openness, Sabia Corda Tabaco has a more profound connection with the base energy center. This grounding effect is ideal for anchoring the user, providing stability and focus. However, with larger doses, this Rapé has the unique ability to elevate the user, allowing for transcendental experiences that connect the physical with higher spiritual planes.

The Tsunu tree (Platycyamus regnellii), from which the ashes in this blend are derived, is a revered plant in many Amazonian traditions. Tsunu ashes are known for their powerful cleansing properties and are a staple in many Rapé formulations due to their ability to enhance the potency and balance of the blend. These ashes are particularly valued for their capacity to open spiritual pathways, making them an essential component in rituals that require deep meditation and introspection. The Tsunu tree, with its strong wood, produces ashes that are not only grounding but also aid in clearing mental and spiritual blockages, allowing for a smoother flow of energy throughout the body.

This particular Rapé also incorporates Apuxuri, a herb known for its distinctive flavour and aromatic qualities. Apuxuri, also called Pixuri, is cherished for its rich profile of compounds such as safrole, eucalyptol, alpha-terpineol, and eugenol. These natural compounds contribute to the herb's ability to stimulate the senses, enhance clarity, and support respiratory well-being. Additionally, Apuxuri is known in indigenous traditions for its spiritual benefits, promoting feelings of gratitude, well-being, and enhancing overall energy flow. The herb’s gentle warmth and stimulating properties make it an excellent complement to the grounding effects of the Sabia Corda Tabaco and Tsunu ashes.

When entering the sinuses, this medium-dark grey Rapé introduces a sharp, warming, and slightly bitter aroma that is both grounding and uplifting. The initial sharpness compels immediate focus, accompanied by a cleansing eye-watering sensation, which many find refreshing and revitalising. The blend’s ultrafine consistency minimises irritation in the back of the throat, ensuring that the entire experience is as smooth as it is powerful. Users often report a sensation of soaring like an eagle while maintaining a deep connection to the earth, making this Rapé a balanced tool for both grounding and spiritual elevation.

The effects of this Rapé are not just physical but also deeply spiritual. The spirit of Pixuri, known for its influence on all chakras, plays a significant role in this blend. Indigenous practices often incorporate Pixuri in spiritual baths and other cleansing rituals, highlighting its importance in purification and spiritual protection. During Rapé use, Pixuri adds a subtle yet powerful dimension to the experience, promoting calmness, mental clarity, and a deepened connection to the breath.

The creation of this Rapé is a testament to the collaborative spirit of the Kuntanawa community. The process involves multiple hands, from collecting woods and barks to producing the ashes and preparing the Tabaco. This collective effort not only ensures the high quality of the Rapé but also reflects the deep cultural and spiritual values of the Kuntanawa people. The final product is a harmonious blend that embodies the shared wisdom and traditions of the community, offering users a profound and transformative experience.

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.

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 organising 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 Kuntanawa 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).
