The plants named by the supplier

Clove vine, which the supplier also calls clavohuasca, is Tynanthus elegans, an accepted species of the trumpet-vine family (Bignoniaceae) in the GBIF backbone. Lourinho, pixuri and veia de pajé are listed by their Portuguese common names only. The supplier gives no botanical names for them, or for the further leaves and vines it mentions, so none are added here.

Who the Huni Kuin are

Huni Kuin is the name of the people also known as Kaxinawá. The Instituto Socioambiental (ISA) describes a people of the Pano language family living on both sides of the Brazil–Peru border; in Brazil, their villages lie along rivers of Acre such as the Tarauacá, Jordão, Envira and Purus. Clove vine and veia de pajé also appear in Haux Haux, a recipe the supplier says it learned from a Huni Kuin txai. For a blend built on tobacco and four plants, see Tradition; every blend is listed in the Huni Kuin category.

Rapé: what is known

Rapé (also spelled hapé or rapeh) is the name for Amazonian snuffs, most often made of finely ground tobacco, usually Nicotiana rustica, mixed with bark ash or other plants. In Portuguese, rapé simply means snuff; the word comes from the French “râpé”, grated. There is no single recipe: the blend changes with the people, the region and the purpose, and tobacco-free rapés also exist.

Among several peoples of Acre, including the Huni Kuin, the Yawanawá and the Noke Koî (Katukina), rapé has a ritual role. It is blown into the nostrils with a tepi, a long pipe handled by another person, or with a kuripe, a V-shaped applicator used on one’s own.

Known compoundsNicotine, in very variable amounts: 0.6 to 4.8% in the rapés analysed by a US CDC laboratory. Alkaline ashes make the nicotine easier to absorb (Stanfill et al. 2015).
Reported effectsBrief burning in the nose, watering eyes, runny nose; dizziness, nausea and sometimes vomiting, which practitioners call a “purge”. Rapé is not psychedelic.
Traditional useShamanic and communal use among the Huni Kuin, Yawanawá and Noke Koî of Acre, often in ceremonies where ayahuasca is also present (ISA; Faria 2016).
State of researchChemical analyses of commercial products, with no clinical study of rapé itself. Health data come from studies of smokeless tobacco.

Good to know

  • Rapés with tobacco contain nicotine, which is addictive and speeds up the heart; they are not suitable during pregnancy or for people with heart disease.
  • The International Agency for Research on Cancer classifies smokeless tobacco as carcinogenic to humans (Group 1).
  • Nicotine is toxic to children and pets: keep rapé out of their reach.
  • Do not share an applicator: traces of blood can remain on the tips.

Storing rapé

Keep rapé in a tightly closed container, dry, away from light and heat: the powder takes up moisture and clumps quickly.
