Shamanic Snuff – Parica

Presenting Parica Shamanic Snuff

Sacred Connection Parica presents a potent blend crafted from robust Sabia tobacco and Parica ashes, also known as Xinsha. Distinguished by its darker hue and higher tobacco content, this blend exudes a beautiful reddish color and offers a grounding effect, perfect for delving into deeper realms of consciousness. With its more masculine essence, Parica Shamanic Snuff profoundly influences the root chakra, instilling a sense of strength and stability. Renowned among Rapé enthusiasts for its exceptional potency, Parica is guaranteed to unleash formidable force.

The name Parica originates from the forest-dwelling caboclos, descendants of individuals who migrated from Northeast Brazil to work in the rubber industry during the early 20th century. These individuals, known as “Rubber Soldiers,” integrated with indigenous communities, adopting their way of life and settling deep within the Amazon rainforest. Their lifestyle, characterized by sustainable farming and harmonious coexistence with nature, embodies Brazil’s rich cultural tapestry, blending European, African, and Indigenous influences. Sacred Connection has gleaned invaluable insights from interactions with various Caboclo communities, enriching our understanding of Rapé.

It’s important to note that Parica Shamanic Snuff in this context differs from the psychoactive Yopo or Parica snuff used by some tribes in Northeast and other Amazonian regions. While Yopo contains psychoactive compounds from specific seeds, the Parica ash, also known as Xinsha, remains distinct. Despite efforts, the botanical name of the Parica tree remains elusive, though its majestic presence in the forest serves as a testament to its significance. We eagerly anticipate sharing further insights into this remarkable tree as our journey continues.
