What is the difference between caapi leaves and caapi stems?

Caapi leaves and stems are different parts of the same Banisteriopsis caapi vine. The stems (vine) are most commonly used and offered in shredded or paste form. The leaves are separately harvested and dried. Both plant parts contain harmala alkaloids, but the distribution and concentration may differ between leaves and stems.

Banisteriopsis caapi is an impressive climbing plant that can produce woody stems up to 30 meters long. The vine grows in the Amazon rainforest and thrives in partial shade to full sun. Learn more about the world of ethnobotanical plants.

How are caapi leaves sustainably harvested?

The leaves are harvested by caboclo partners — local forest dwellers descending from rubber tappers and indigenous peoples. During harvest, roots remain in the ground so the vine can recover. An active replanting project ensures compensation through new planting.
