The Jatoba rapé blend from the Guarani-Kayowa Brazilian Indians was sent to us by our friend Rafa, it is very rare and unique, there is only a small number of tribes that produce it and share it with the modern world.
Jatoba tree
Jatoba, botanically Hymenaea courbaril, otherwise also courbaril, is a tree common in the Caribbean, Central America and South America. It has hardwood that is used for furniture, flooring and decorations. Its hard fruit pods have an edible dry pulp surrounding the seeds.
Jatoba rapé is made from the ashes of this sacred tree added to a powder from strong tobacco rolls, creating a special mixture. The Jatoba mixture is usually rich in ash and not as concentrated in tobacco powder as it is already strong on its own.
Tradition
Rapé Jatoba is often used in dance ceremonies to give the Indians harmony and focus on the rhythm of a group dance, the Guarani-Kayowa culture is very famous for its ceremonial dances. On such occasions, hundreds and hundreds of natives gather and paint each other’s bodies, believing that this gives them strength and joy to dance. The traditional dance is spiritually understood as “the circle of life’s movement”.

The conscious use – ritual
Rapé is a sacred amazonian tool. The native tribes are passing it to us with a following message: “The use of rapé should always be connected with a prayer or the ritual. It should be given or received with respect and humility. It helps greatly to come up with a clear intention. The effects and the realization of the intention tends to get stronger. It is important to keep the purity of the space and heart.”
