The Nukini are another tribe who nearly lost their culture and medicine Shamanic Snuff tradition with the rubber boom but brought it back more recently. Their snuffs became known as some of the most sought after mainly because of the high quality Nukini Rapé from our friend and partner Xiti Nukini.
