Blend Profile:

Apurinã Purus Awiry Hapé is one of the rarest green Hapé available today. This rare Apurinã Awiry Hapé from the Purus region is becoming increasingly scarce. We have recently been informed that no additional batches are expected, making it unlikely that this particular Apurinã medicine will return once our current supply is gone.

Prepared by the Apurinã people living along the middle reaches of the Purus River, this exceptional blend is made exclusively from the sacred Awiry plant with no other added ingredients. Harvested only during the dry season, the leaves are carefully shade-dried, hand-pounded, and finely sifted into a delicate pastel-green powder that preserves the plant's living aroma, subtle energy, and natural vitality.

This particular Purus-region Awiry possesses a character all its own. Its fragrance is noticeably more floral and vibrant than other Awiry preparations, carrying the fresh scent of jungle herbs, flowering vines, and living forest. The experience begins with a clean, immediate clearing of the sinuses, followed by a lifted, expansive awareness that feels light, spacious, and quietly radiant. Rather than producing heavy grounding, this medicine gently opens the heart, sharpens perception, and encourages emotional softness, making it especially suited for meditation, dreamwork, ceremonial singing, and subtle energetic refinement.

This is not an everyday Hapé but a treasured ceremonial companion. It is a medicine often reserved for meaningful moments, unfolding new layers of depth with each intentional use.

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.
