Yawanawá Original Rapé
 
Yawanawá original rapé, often referred to as traditional Yawanawá rapé, is a sacred snuff crafted by the Yawanawá tribe from the Acre region of Brazil, along the Gregório River. Known as "Rume" in their language, it typically consists of a blend of Tabaco de Moi (a strong native tobacco), Tsunu ashes (from the bark of the Tsunu tree, Platycyamus regnellii, similar to Pau Pereira), and sometimes other medicinal plants like Parika or Mulateiro.
 
This blend is revered for its grounding, cleansing, and spiritually uplifting properties, often used in shamanic ceremonies to enhance focus, clear negative energies, and support ayahuasca rituals. Its effects are described as powerful yet balanced, with an initial intense "kick" that may cause eye watering, followed by a calming clarity and connection to the body and spirit.
 
The Yawanawá, a tribe of about 1,300 known for their warrior spirit and shamanic traditions, were the first to initiate a woman as a shaman, emphasising their progressive cultural practices. Their rapé recipes are closely guarded, with variations like Yawanawá Parika, Mulateiro, or Força Feminina (crafted by Nawashahu, highlighting feminine energy) differing in plant ratios or additives like Cumaru (Tonka bean) or Jurema ashes.
