Rapé Powder – Cusco Shawanawa

Cusco Shawanawa Rapé is a traditional ceremonial snuff inspired by the sacred healing traditions of the Shawanawa people, Indigenous guardians of the Brazilian Amazon, and the spiritual heritage of the Cusco region. Carefully prepared with sacred ashes and often Nicotiana rustica (Mapacho), this blend is traditionally used to promote grounding, mental clarity and a deep connection with Spirit.
