Tsunu Ash

Pure Tsunu/Pau pereira ash (Platycyamus regnellii) powder made from the sacred Tsunu tree.

This ash forms many of the oldest types of rapé, is a classic and used for for grounding and clearing.

The names are used interchangeably this caused debate over if Tsunu is the same plant as Pau periera or separate type of tree

Made by the Yawanawa in the Acre, these ashes are perfect for creating your own rapé blend or for adding to other rapé blends to create a stronger hit or to introduce other effects from the spirit of the plants they came from.

More ash will create a sharper hit and cause faster uptake of the mapacho and other compounds and this faster acting effects.
Too much ash will dry the nose and create an unpleasant citrus type effect.

Adding rapé or mapcho/ash in a 60/40 or 50/50 split is a good starting point.
