Crafted by various Acre tribes (like the Shanenawa and Huni Kuin), this rapé blends tobacco with ash from the jenipapo tree. Within indigenous ceremonies, jenipapo rapé is sought after for its highly protective, transformative, and clarifying properties. Because the plant’s juice undergoes a dramatic chemical transformation (clear to deep blue), the spirit of the jenipapo tree is treated as a catalyst for inner change.
The jenipapo tree grows throughout the Amazon basin. The tree has evolved a remarkable physical resilience to seasonal flooding, capable of surviving with its root system fully submerged underwater for several months during the Amazonian rainy season. Traditionally was also used for sacred body art as the juice of the fruit created a vibrant blue dye. Medicinally was utilized as a gastrointestinal and Respiratory first aid.
