If you are not familiar with rapé, we recommend that you read the explanations in the FAQ section carefully.

Râpé is a traditional snuff from the Amazon region. Its main component is Mapacho. It is mixed with different herbs, seeds, bark, flowers, leaves, roots and their ashes, which results in a variety of blends. The ingredients of each blend are listed on its product page.

Amazonian peoples traditionally use rapé in ceremonial and social settings, for example in rites of passage and at gatherings. Traditionally, rapé is used in a calm place, sitting upright, occasionally and in small amounts, not every day.

The information on this page is provided for historical, cultural and educational purposes only. It is not a recommendation for a specific use and makes no medical or therapeutic statements. Our products are not medicines. Use is at the customer's own decision and responsibility.

Rapé is sold to adults aged 18 and over only.

To blow rapé, special tubes are traditionally used: tepis and kuripes.

A kuripe is a V-shaped tube designed for individual use and for blowing rapé by yourself.

A tepi is a long tube that is used to blow rapé to another person.

Traditionally, tepi and kuripe tubes are made from wood. Our range also includes tubes made from bamboo, other tropical woods and silver. The material is stated on each product page.

If you would like a tube with an individual design made especially for you, it can be made to order. If you are interested, please contact us by email or Instagram.

To help your tubes last and keep their appearance, we recommend storing them properly. Keep your tepi and kuripe in a box or case and do not carry them in a bag or pocket with keys, money or other items.

To clean the tubes, use a cotton swab or a small brush. Do not wet them with water under any circumstances, as it can spoil their appearance. Do not clean tepi or kuripe with Agua de Florida.

Amazonian and shamanic traditions include many other items, and we would like to introduce some of them to you.

Our shop also offers items that are traditionally used around a rapé ceremony. In traditional use, the setting is an important part of the ceremony. The following items are available:

These hand-crafted pieces of fabric are traditionally used in Amazonian ceremonies. Placed in front of you, they can hold your rapé bottle and your tepi or kuripe before the ceremony starts. Their motifs are shamanic in style.

Palo Santo wood is traditionally burned before a ritual to perfume the space. The stick is lit, and the smoke is wafted over the room, the tools or the objects.

In addition to the preparation of rapé ceremonies, Palo Santo can be lit on occasions such as:

• Before any event, lesson, lecture, practice or just receiving friends and guests
• During a quiet moment at home
• As part of a personal ritual or meditation practice
• When you arrive in a new place, hotel or apartment

Agua de Florida is a Peruvian cologne that is traditionally used in ceremonies and rituals.

It has an aromatic composition of flowers, herbs and spices: neroli, cloves, orange, bergamot, lemon, lavender, cinnamon and rose. It is sprayed as a fragrance. Agua de Florida is not for cleaning tepi or kuripe.

Huayruro seeds are deep red with a contrasting black or white mark. In Peru they are traditionally regarded as a symbol of good luck, and they are often worn as jewelry. These bracelets are made from the seeds.
