Blend Profile:

Experience the profound depth of Kaxinawá Oshá Blend Hapé, a unique formulation that marries the rich heritage of Kaxinawá Rapé with the potent ashes of Murici and Cacao, enhanced by the distinguished Oshá root. This medium-dark grey Hapé features a sharp, warming aroma that is both unforgettable and invigorating. The initial application provides an intense, eye-watering sensation, swiftly followed by a notable clearing effect on the sinuses and breath. The Oshá root, revered for its sacred and purifying properties, imparts a unique blend of strength and lightness, fostering relaxation and receptivity.

Oshá root (Ligusticum porteri), known as "Bear medicine," has long been valued by Native Americans for its powerful cleansing and protective qualities. Traditionally burned for ritual purification and associated with mystical dreaming, Oshá root’s rich, celery-camphor aroma enhances the Hapé experience, making it a tool for both spiritual and physical well-being.

About The Tribe

The Kaxinawa people, also known as the Huni kuin or "True Humans," are a prominent indigenous tribe in Acre state and Peru. They belong to the Pano linguistic tribes residing in the Brazilian and Peruvian Amazon regions, and comprise 42% of the indigenous population in Acre. Their name, "People of the Bat," was given to them by rival tribes. The tribe's leader is a highly respected shaman who advocates for his people through various organizations, including UNI/AC, ASKARJ, the Alliance of Forest Peoples, and the International Council on Human Rights.

Hapé, a traditional snuff made from different ingredients, is used by the Kaxinawa tribe for a variety of purposes. It can alleviate physical pain and sinus issues, as well as aid in mental healing when combined with chanting. Hapé is also believed to connect the tribe with the spirits of the jungle and has various effects, such as curing ailments, improving concentration, and enhancing hunting abilities.
