Parica Extra Strong Rapé
Latin Name: Sterculia striata
Ethnicity: Caboclo
Ash: Paricá
Strength: Extra- Strong
Caboclo Parica is a powerful and transformative rapéh blend, crafted for those seeking to go deep into their inner journey. It is prepared using artisanal Sabiá tobacco and the ashes of the Paricá tree (Sterculia striata), also known as Xixá. This sacred preparation is rooted in the profound traditions of the Amazon rainforest.
The Paricá tree holds a significant place in local knowledge. Its bark ash is renowned for its strength and cleansing properties, serving as a spiritual ally for grounding and deep focus. Paricá ash is thought to aid in clearing energetic blockages, offering protection, and enhancing the user’s connection to the spirit realm.
This rapéh blend was created by one of the region's most skilled non-indigenous crafters, a forest connoisseur who grew up tapping rubber and exploring the rich biodiversity of the Amazon. His expertise in traditional medicines shines through in this blend, which embodies the wisdom of the forest.
This is an extra-strong variation of the Caboclo Parica blend, made using the first sieving of the most potent Rustica tobacco and Paricá ash. Its intensity amplifies its effects, making it ideal for experienced users seeking profound clarity, focus, and energetic realignment.

About Rapé
Rapé (also hapé) is a finely ground blend of medicinal plants and ash. It’s most widely used in Brazil, though the Matses in Peru also have a green version with uncured mapacho. It is believed to go back to the time of the Incas. It can help focus the mind, release emotional, physical, energetic and spiritual illnesses, align the chakras, connect to higher consciousness and ground the body.
Storage: Please keep the bottle in a dark, cool place away from direct sunlight.
Sourcing:
Wankawi intends to do it's best for ethically sourcing these Amazonian Medicines. While traveling to the jungle to ensure cultivation, preparation, sale and shipment processes is not possible, we ask as many questions as we can to ensure all are in alignment with our values. We work with women suppliers and preparers when possible to support their livelihoods. We also buy from suppliers that have a well known reputation for highest quality products. Wankawi is driven by sustainability, in all senses. If any of these medicines become endangered, or we hear of unethical or ecologically destructive practices, we will discontinue offering these medicines. The foremost important aspect of working with these medicines is to listen - to the plants themselves, the Wisdom of the Earth and the communities and traditions from which they originate. Only when we take care of the entire system, can we truly heal, thrive and create a new world.
*A portion of proceeds (5-10%) is donated annually back to the communities or organizations working to support Amazonian communities and the plants.
