RAPÈH & KURIPES

In the Amazonian world, Rapéh (also spelled hapé or Rapeh) is far more than an herbal powder — it is a sacred snuff medicine, woven into the spiritual and healing traditions of Indigenous tribes such as the Yawanawá, Huni Kuin, and Katukina. Crafted with intention and ancestral knowledge, Rapéh blends finely ground Nicotiana rustica (sacred jungle tobacco) with alkaline ashes and plant allies, each component chosen for its energetic and medicinal qualities. 

Traditionally administered nasally through a kuripê (self‑applicator pipe) or tepi (ceremonial blowpipe), Rapéh is used with reverence to clear stagnant energy, sharpen the mind, and restore balance before prayer, meditation, or ceremony. It is seen as a bridge — connecting body, breath, and spirit — helping to release mental fog, align intention, and deepen one’s connection to the natural world and ancestral wisdom. 

At Chaka World, our Rapéh and kuripis honor authentic tradition and ethical sourcing. Each blend reflects the distinct cultural practices and plant knowledge of the communities who create it, carried out with respect, ritual, and sustainable care. Used with clear intention and presence, this sacred medicine becomes a tool for grounding, clarity, and deep energetic cleansing — inviting you into a state of focused awareness and soulful presence.
