Yopo Seeds (Anadenanthera peregrina)
Yopo Seeds, also known as Jopo, Cohoba, Parica or Calcium Tree, is a perennial tree of the Anadenanthera Genus native to the Caribbean and South America. The beans of A. colubrina have a similar chemical makeup as Anadenanthera peregrina.
Traditional Use:
Archaeological evidence shows Anadenanthera beans have been used as for thousands of years. Some indigenous peoples of the Orinoco basin in Colombia, Venezuela and possibly in the southern part of the Brazilian Amazon make use of yopo snuff for spiritual healing. Yopo snuff was also widely used in ceremonial contexts in the Caribbean area, including Cuba and La Española, up to the Spanish Conquest. Yopo snuff is usually blown into the user’s nostrils by another person through bamboo tubes or sometimes snuffed by the user using bird bone tubes. Blowing is more effective as this method allows more powder to enter the nose and is said to be less irritating. In some areas the unprocessed ground beans are snuffed or smoked producing a much weaker effect with stronger physical symptoms.

Amazing service and quality. I sent my money order and a week later emailed to check the status. Didn’t receive the email immediately (probably because it was the weekend) but on money got my package and a reply. I was gladly surprised to find double the amount I ordered. Will definitely order more from here.

Alot came with some mold on it but a little scraping and its good to use
Johnny Shaman (store manager) –
Thank you for your review Liana. The mold like substance you refer to is a waxy film that naturally occurs on Yopo seeds.

Seeds appeared to be of high quality – however they did not respond to environmental conditions as expected. Seed response may be possible with other environmental exposures/ techniques.

Jeff is mad at us because USPS is delayed. USPS has an alert that they are severely delayed due to the pandemic and holiday season. Jeff Blake is not that empathetic towards to challenges everyone is facing. We apologized for the inconvenience , but unfortunately, it is out of our hands. Jeff has become very abusive to our employees and has been banned from future purchases. So he decided to post very ugly reviews about our product and service in retaliation. Our stellar reviews over the last 10 years more than tells the story of our commitment to provide premium products and outstanding customer service. We wish Jeff the best.
