Rapé Nukini - Shuané/Haianí

The Nukini are a small community in the Brazilian state of Acre. This rather unknown tribe was always dominated by other tribes throughout history and as a result, very little is known about its traditions.

The Rapé of the Nukini, however, is very remarkable - we appreciate it for its freshness, purity and fine consistency. It is used for various purposes and occasions; to achieve clarity, to cure and reduce stress, in ceremonies with or without Ayahuasca, as well as for internal cleansing while bathing in the river. Similar to the Yawanawa Parika, this Rapé is awakening, clearing and extremely cleansing. The special feature of this Rapé is its use of two particular plants which are found only in the Nunikit tradition: Shuané and Haianí (both of these plants are botanically not yet identified). There are also ingredients of tobacco, Tsunuak (Platycyamus regnelli) and other plants for healing and cleansing. This Rapé smells pleasantly fresh and is extremely effective.

Incense to burn on charcoal.
