Character: deeply grounding, mystical, elemental.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eImagine this: you walk through the rainforest for an hour. You smell wood, resin, earth, blossom. You hear water, birds, wind in the treetops. Not one scent, but everything at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat is 7 Eva's. While most rapé revolves around one tree or one plant, this blend brings seven together. 7 Eva's rapé is made by the Huni Kuin, the largest indigenous people of the state of Acre in the Brazilian Amazon. It is a very strong blend. Full, broad, and deep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat is 7 Eva's rapé?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e7 Eva's is a fine plant powder with seven ingredients and three types of ash. You may also know it as 7 Ervas or Sete Ervas. \u003cem\u003eErva\u003c\/em\u003e is Portuguese for herb. We deliberately keep the name 7 Eva's.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRapé is pronounced as \"ha-pé\". That is why you also see the spelling hapé, and sometimes rapeh. The Huni Kuin have traditionally used rapé in ceremony and meditation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe seven of 7 Eva's\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eTsunu: the ash of a tree found everywhere in Acre, the solid foundation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCumaru: from the forest of Acre, also available as its own rapé\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eMurú: the ash of the palm \u003cem\u003eAstrocaryum murumuru\u003c\/em\u003e, where the name comes from\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eNissaral: a plant from the Huni Kuin tradition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eBuna Tura: a plant from the Huni Kuin tradition, which is also in our Buna Rao\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCaneleiro: Tsunu with the ash of Canela de Velho, the tree named after cinnamon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eParika: with seeds of Anadenanthera and ash from the Paricá tree\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery maker of 7 Ervas uses their own mixture. What you see elsewhere is therefore often a different blend. These are the seven of our Huni Kuin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow 7 Eva's is made\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeven ingredients, three types of ash. That means a lot of work. Everything is done by hand, without machines. Leaves and seeds are dried and finely pounded. The sun further pulverizes them. The ash is ground very finely. Then everything goes together over a large sieve, until it is one powder. 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 7 Eva's is superfine, almost powdery. With a blend with so many components, you can really see how much handwork is involved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFreshly bottled\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlmost every month a new shipment arrives, in small batches. Kevin does the final inspection. The rapé goes directly into a dark bottle that blocks uv-light. This way, the prayers and chants remain trapped in the bottle. Open the bottle, and you will notice how fresh it is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKevin has known the Huni Kuin for about eight years. He has daily contact with a Huni Kuin village in Acre, via WhatsApp and video calls. This is how he learns which plants go into which blend, and why. The rapé comes directly from them, without intermediaries. Going to the village is at the top of his list.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Huni Kuin are also known as the 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 that, a portion of the proceeds goes back to the village.\" — Kevin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow do people experience 7 Eva's?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith one plant, you often feel one thing. Peace, or focus, or grounding. With 7 Eva's, everything comes at once. And yet nothing dominates. The seven keep each other in balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMany people experience 7 Eva's as a broad clearing. Not in one place, but on multiple layers at once. In your head, in your feelings, in your body. Whatever you carry with you can be put down for a while.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThen there is often a sense of coherence. What felt fragmented falls back into place. Head, heart, and body are once again aligned. Many people describe this as a feeling of completeness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnd because the blend is so strong, it is also deeply grounding. You sink. Deeper than you thought.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat many people experience with 7 Eva's\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eA broad clearing, on multiple layers at once\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCoherence: head, heart, and body once again aligned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eDeep grounding and a solid center\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eQuietly landing after intense inner work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is experience, not a promise.
