Character: insight, centering, presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is a kind of power that does not shout. That does not want to impress. That is simply there, time and again. That is Murici.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMurici rapé is made by the Huni Kuin in the state of Acre, in the Brazilian Amazon. It is strong enough for a real experience. And yet it is also a good start if you are just getting acquainted with rapé. Tsunu, Rosa and Murici are all good starts, each with its own character. Murici is the broad, balanced one of them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat is Murici rapé?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eImagine a tree with clusters of yellow flowers that later turn red-orange. Then come small, yellow fruits. Almost everyone in Brazil knows them. You eat them fresh or drink them as juice. That is the murici tree. The botanical name is \u003cem\u003eByrsonima crassifolia\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Huni Kuin make ash from that tree. That ash is the base of this rapé. The tree that people know for its sweet fruits also gives something very different: a calm, solid blend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou pronounce rapé as \"ha-pé\". That is why you also see the spelling hapé, and sometimes rapeh. It is a fine plant powder that the Huni Kuin have traditionally used in ceremony and meditation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow Murici is made\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Huni Kuin make ash from the murici tree. That ash is ground very finely. Then leaves from traditional plants are added.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEverything is done by hand. The leaves are dried, finely pounded and further pulverized by the sun. Then everything goes through a large sieve. During the work, songs are sung and prayers are offered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRapé you see elsewhere is often a bit coarser and grainier. Our Murici is super fine, almost powdery. You can see that as soon as you open the bottle. It is the work of hands, not machines. And because it is so fine, you need less of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDirectly from the Huni Kuin\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKevin has had a connection with a Huni Kuin village in Acre for about eight years. They speak to each other daily, via WhatsApp and video calls. From them he learns which plants go into it and how to recognize them. Going to the village is at the top of his list.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rapé comes directly from them, without any middleman. Almost every month a small, fresh shipment arrives. Kevin does the final inspection. Then the rapé immediately goes into a dark bottle that blocks uv-light. This way, the prayers and chants remain captured in the bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Huni Kuin are also called Kaxinawá. They themselves choose the name Huni Kuin, \"the True People\". So do we.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\"They get the price they ask. I never haggle. And besides, a part of the proceeds goes back to the village.\" — Kevin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow do people experience Murici?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMany people describe Murici in two words: simply good. That sounds small. But anyone who works with rapé knows how much that says.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMurici does not pull you in one direction. It does not make you wild or limp. What people say is that everything falls a little into place. You sink into your body. Your head becomes calmer. And you stand in the center of yourself again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMany people experience Murici as clearing, from top to bottom. Not with a heavy hand, but broadly and evenly. Afterwards they feel clear and balanced, not exhausted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat many people experience with Murici\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eBalance: not too much and not too little\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eA calm, clear feeling, from your head to your feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eBeing centered again, in the middle of yourself\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eClarity and insight, without it overwhelming you\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is experience, not a promise.

Start small and build up slowly. Would you rather start softer? Then also look at Rosa, strength 3 out of 7.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eYou are looking for a steady base\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDo you also work with stronger varieties?

Many people experience that the space feels calmer and cleaner afterwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eYou do not want a spectacle, but balance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDo you have no need for an intense experience? Do you just want to be clear and feel good in your skin? Then Murici is a good choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/en-pt\/pages\/keuzehulp\"\u003eWhich rapé suits you?

It is a tree with yellow flowers and small yellow fruits, which are eaten a lot in Brazil. The Huni Kuin make ash from that tree. That ash is the base of this rapé, with leaves from traditional plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs Murici suitable as a first rapé?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Murici has strength 5 out of 7. It is strong, but broad and balanced. Start with as much as a pea per nostril. Tsunu and Rosa are also a good start, each with its own character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between Murici and Tsunu?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBoth have strength 5 out of 7, and both are a good start. On the label of Tsunu it says: deeply grounding, energetic, balancing. For Murici: insight, centering, presence.

Murici comes from the murici tree and has strength 5 out of 7. Murú comes from the murumuru palm and has strength 7 out of 7. Murú is intended for experienced users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I combine Murici with another variety?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Many people use Murici as an opening.
