Kuntanawa Caapi

Kuntanawa caapi Rapé is a ceremonial, deep and extremely strong Rapé. It contains the Banisteriopsis Caapi vine, the main ingredient of ayahuasca, which is why it is also called Ayarapé, or Ayahuasca Rapé.

Banisteriopsis caapi, better known as Caapi or Yajé, is a liana from the Amazon rainforest that is used for its MAO inhibitory properties in the preparation of Ayahuasca.

For its preparation, the Mapacho is sprayed with Ayahuasca and dried. It is one of the strongest and most powerful varieties of Rapé.

Caapi is considered a plant that, in addition to inducing deep spiritual experiences, facilitates healing on a physical and emotional level. It embodies invaluable cultural heritage for Amazonian tribes, and its presence in ritual ceremonies highlights the interconnectedness of spirituality, nature and cultural identity of these communities, offering a window into the rich complexity of Amazonian traditions.
