Caboclo Rapé – Gesileu Traditional: A Blend Honoring the Amazon and Its People

A Sacred Blend Honoring the Forest and Its People

Gesileu Traditional is more than a rapé—it’s a quiet force from the heart of the forest. Prepared by master artisan Gesileu, this blend is the result of decades of devotion to the plants, the land, and the spirits that dwell within them. Gesileu is a respected figure in the Caboclo lineage, known not for show or promotion, but for the depth of his relationship with the forest and the medicines it offers.

This rapé is made using a simple combination of powerful, traditional ashes: Tsunu, Cumaru Ferro, and Murici Preto—each one selected with care and intention. The ingredients are sustainably harvested, mostly by families from the Huni Kuin and Yawanawá tribes, and brought together under Gesileu’s guidance in a preparation that’s both humble and deeply refined.

A Blend of Simplicity and Depth

The character of Rapé Gesileu Traditional is straightforward, without unnecessary complexity—yet it reaches deep. Tsunu, a classic Amazonian ash, forms the base. Known for its clarity-inducing and grounding qualities, Tsunu has long been used in ceremonial contexts across many tribes.

Added to that is Cumaru Ferro, a dense and potent tree known for its powerful aroma and cleansing properties. It lends body and strength to the blend, supporting a deep energetic clearing without being harsh.

Finally, Murici Preto brings a lighter touch, adding a balancing element to the medicine. This trio creates a rapé that clears the mind, anchors the body, and opens the energetic field for connection and insight.

The result is a well-balanced, medium-strength rapé, perfect for those seeking clarity, spiritual hygiene, and a return to presence. It’s not aggressive—but it doesn’t hold back either. It meets you where you are.

Crafted with Integrity and Purpose

What sets this rapé apart is not just what’s in it, but who makes it. Gesileu is a forest cultivator, a keeper of traditional knowledge, and someone who truly lives this path. He prepares each blend by hand, in small quantities, with full attention to the energy of the space, the materials, and the moment.

The preparation is not rushed or industrial. It follows a rhythm—one that honors the forest and the spiritual dimension of the work. Gesileu’s blends are made not only to be used, but to be respected, like a teacher or an old friend.

Supporting the Forest and Its Communities

This rapé stands as part of a living relationship between the people of the forest and those who walk the medicine path elsewhere in the world.

A portion of the ingredients come from Huni Kuin and Yawanawá families, who harvest with care and intention. Their work is supported through fair pricing and long-term collaboration. But beyond that, a significant part of the support from each sale goes directly to Gesileu himself—helping fund his Amazonian botanical garden in his howm town Rio Branco, where he grows medicinal plants, teaches the younger generations, and keeps traditional knowledge alive in the soil.

In choosing this rapé, you’re not only receiving a powerful medicine. You’re also helping to preserve the land, the culture, and the wisdom that make it possible.

How to Work with This Rapé

Gesileu Traditional is suitable for a range of uses—from daily grounding to ceremony support or integration. It has a steadying effect on the nervous system and helps quiet the inner noise. It can be used on its own, or before meditation, prayer, or intentional rest.

As always, it’s best approached with respect and presence. This is not a medicine for entertainment—it’s a sacred tool that responds to the quality of your attention.

A True Forest Offering

There’s something unmistakable about a rapé made by someone who walks the forest every day, who listens to the plants, and who carries the medicine with humility. Gesileu Rapé doesn’t shout—it speaks in a calm voice that cuts through the static.

If you’re looking for a blend that’s rooted in the real—made by someone who’s doing the work, quietly and consistently—this is it.
