Rapé Marachimbé

Rapé Marachimbe is a special and quite masculine snuff from the Nukini tribe. It is a recipe from a very gifted former Pajé (shaman) of the tribe.

This rapé is a mixture of different medicines that will bring you to your senses. It’s strong and powerful!
It has a dark brown appearance and a complex and deep aroma. I recommend this rapé for the experienced student. If this Rapé connects to you and delivers all its power it can be quite overwhelming.

The Nukini Tribe

The Nukini belong to the Pano linguistic family and are about only 750 members. The tribe suffered severely during the era of latex production and afterward. The Nukini lost A huge part of their culture, including their language. almost the entire ethnic group disappeared (Aguiar 2012). Due to this decline in members, many Nukini people had to mingle with members of other ethnicities in order to survive.

Exploitation and violence that started with the rubber industry, have turned into drug traffickers, loggers, and hunters that still pose a threat to this tribe. Despite all these challenges that the Nukini people had to face, at the present time.
The Nukini have a stable socio-economic situation and pursue economic activities like fishing and hunting, while there are also many nutritious plants, like mango, soursop, coconut, cashew, and jackfruit. And also pineapple, lemon, Barbados cherry, guava, avocado, pupunha, cupuaçu, and papaya nourishes the tribe. Yet the Nukini managed to survive by mingling with other groups and tribes. They build a strong socio-economic structure that enables them to be in close connection with nature that surrounds and feeds them.
