Banisteriopsis caapi - Ourinhos

Banisteriopsis caapi is one of the two main ingredients of a traditional medicinal and visionary brew from the Amazon region. It contains a high concentration of natural MAO-inhibitors and has powerful purgative effects.Some indigenous people distinguish over 40 varieties. Two varieties that are common are Ourinhos and Trueno. "Ourinhos" literally means "little gold" and this strain is apparently the one used by the Ayahuasca-drinking churches (Santo Daime, UDV and Barquinha)
