Vibrational Essence:

Soothing Harmony: Offers a serene, gentle calm that embraces the spirit, ideal for tranquil reflection.
Enhanced Perceptiveness: Opens the senses, amplifying clarity and enriching one's connection to the natural world.
Nature's Whisper: Facilitates a deep bond with the forest spirits and Pachamama, enhancing spiritual exploration and grounding.

Blend Profile: Step into the lush greenery of the Amazon with the Apurinã Awiry Purus, a unique Hapé crafted from the wild-grown green Rustica known as Awiry. This blend is celebrated for its gentle, yet profound sensory enhancement. Made during the dry season when Awiry leaves are most potent, this raw, unfermented Hapé captures the pure essence of the jungle through its floral and earthy tones.

This blend is especially suited for those new to Hapé or preferring a subtler touch. It can be used alone for its mild euphoric and calming effects or mixed with other Rusticas or ashes to customize your spiritual journey. With its fine, powdery texture and rare availability, Apurinã Awiry Purus offers an exclusive window into the sacred traditions of the Apurinã tribe.

About Tribe

The Apurina tribe, numbering between 2,000 and 4,000 members, inhabits 27 indigenous territories along the Purus River in the Brazilian Amazon. Their migratory lifestyle makes precise population estimates challenging. Each community within these regions maintains its own social organization, yet all Apurina people speak the Maipure-Aruak language and refer to themselves as 'Popingaré' or 'Kangite,' meaning 'people' or 'humans.'

Women in the tribe are adept in crafting baskets, brooms, pottery, and exquisite snuff boxes from snail, metal, and rubber residues, as well as the corresponding rapé blowpipes used in their rituals.

Shamanism plays a crucial role in Apurina culture. Their shamans engage with the spiritual world using stones and a special healing leaf known as 'katsoparu.' Shamans and tribe members frequently use a snuff called 'awire' during rituals. A typical healing session may involve the shaman extracting stones believed to embody illnesses from a patient’s body, then placing these stones within themselves, followed by prescribing plantbased treatments. Shamans also perform spiritual journeys in dreams, guided by animal spirits and the chiefs of these spirits, to mediate with the natural world and protect the tribe from predatory animals. It is a common belief within the tribe that a powerful shaman does not die but becomes enchanted, continuing his journeys in another realm.
