Banisteriopsis Caapi Caupuri 30:1 Paste

This paste is a water extract of the Caupuri variety of Banisteriopsis caapi, a specific vine from the Brazilian Amazon region. Caupuri distinguishes itself through its unique morphology: the vine has large, conspicuous nodes and distinctive texture. When you break the vine, it fragments into narrower pieces rather than long fibres like other caapi varieties.

The concentration is 30:1, meaning 30 grams of fresh vine is reduced to 1 gram of paste. The extract is made with clean water and fresh, wild-harvested vines.

Key features: Concentrated paste from wild Caupuri caapi from Brazil. Water extract in 30:1 ratio. Sourced from vines with characteristic large nodes. Made by caboclo partners with sustainable harvesting method.

Sustainable harvesting and replanting

The paste is made from wild vines harvested by our caboclo partners — local forest dwellers who often descend from rubber tappers and indigenous communities. We have an active replanting project: what's taken from the forest is compensated through new planting. During harvest, the roots remain in the ground, allowing the vine to recover relatively quickly.
