Yawanawa (Chief) | Moi, Rope and Sabia Tobacco & Tsunu
Chief Rapé (Cacique) comes straight from Nixiwaka, also known as Biraci Brasil, Chief General of the Yawanawa people.
This is a very special snuff, made with a mixture of three types of tobacco: Moi tobacco which is native to the region, extra strong rope tobacco and the famous Sabia tobacco.
In addition to the tobacco blend, Tsunu ash is also used. This is a very special snuff, made with great care and prayer.
It was Biraci who started the journey back to the roots of their people after losing almost everything at the hands of rubber tapper bosses and evangelical pastors. He was the first, in a long time, to go on an initiation diet, which reconnected him with his ancestors.
One of the forgotten medicines he brought back was Rumã, as they call snuff. He is even one of the people responsible for consecrating this indigenous medicine today.
In the early 1990s, the indigenous resistance movement emerged, led by young people who began to use their voices to call for attention to the cause of indigenous peoples. Biraci was one of those young people. Nowadays, he is fully dedicated to the spirituality of his people.
