Our products are handcrafted in small, intentional batches by indigenous tribes of the Amazon, including the Ashaninka, Huni Kuin, Yawanawá, Katukina, Nukini, Kaxinawá, Kuntanawa, and others. Each tribe holds its own ancestral knowledge and unique blend formulas passed down through generations, often kept secret to honor their lineage and traditions.
These sacred blends are made from carefully selected Amazonian plants, collected during ceremonial processes by tribe members. The preparation is overseen by experienced shamans—often the Pajé, or tribal chief—who follow strict spiritual and physical diets throughout the process. This includes isolation, fasting, abstaining from salt, sugar, and contact with others, to remain in deep energetic alignment with the plant spirits.
The crafting of each batch is a sacred act that can take several weeks. Only 1 to 2 kilograms may be produced at a time. The plants are sun-dried or roasted, ground, and filtered through fine cloth multiple times. Every step is done with deep reverence and intention.
Until recently, these sacred preparations were kept within the tribes. It is only through trust and relationship that they have chosen to share their medicines with foreign friends, to help preserve their traditions and offer healing to those on a spiritual path.
Our intention is to maintain a respectful, sustainable exchange that supports the tribes economically and spiritually—while offering our customers access to tools made with genuine care, purpose, and power.
