This exclusive snuff blend is made with guarumo leaves and wild tobacco (Nicotiana rustica). Traditionally appreciated for its relaxing profile, it is associated with meditative states and a sense of balance. Suitable for ceremonial contexts or responsible individual use.

Origin and technical composition

Snuff has deep roots in Amazonian traditions. It is made from finely ground wild tobacco combined with selected plants, in this case guarumo leaves. Each batch is carefully checked to ensure authenticity, freshness and quality.

Traditional profile and characteristics

Guarumo snuff is traditionally associated with a calming and stabilising profile. It may encourage an introspective and meditative state within ceremonial contexts. In guided experiences, it is often described as a balanced blend when seeking calmness and inner focus. Responsible and mindful use is recommended, avoiding recreational or party settings.

How to use and safe administration

Snuff can be administered in two ways:

• By blowing: another person gently blows the powder into the nose.
• With a kuripe or tepi: self-administration using a traditional pipe that allows better control and precision of the dose.

Recommended steps:

1. Load the end of the kuripe with a small amount (for beginners, about the size of a pea).
2. Tap the pipe lightly on a firm surface to remove air or loose particles.
3. Take a deep breath and place the kuripe in the nostril.
4. Lean slightly forward, close your eyes and blow firmly but in a controlled way.
5. Adjust the dose gradually depending on experience and tolerance.
6. Lean forward after application to minimise dripping.

Storage

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct light. Avoid humidity and extreme temperatures to maintain freshness and the original properties of the product.
