Why Cat's Claw?

The harvest is done by hand and with great care. Only a part of the vine is used, allowing it to continue growing and regenerating. This form of use is not a trend, but part of a traditional practice that respects the natural cycle of the jungle.

One of Cat, the powerful vine from the jungle
Deep in the Amazon rainforest grows the cat's claw vine, a powerful climbing plant that winds its way through the dense canopy of the jungle along the trees. For generations, its bark has been part of the plant culture of indigenous communities in the Amazon, who have passed down their knowledge about this special vine over many generations.
The harvest is traditionally done with great respect for nature. Indigenous gatherers only cut the bark from the end of the vine, allowing the plant to continue growing and not be damaged. This gentle method enables a sustainable use of the plant and is in harmony with the natural cycle of the rainforest.
From the bark pieces, an aromatic infusion with a mild-bitter character is created. Each cup connects you with the plant world of the Amazon and the long tradition that has accompanied this vine for centuries.
From the heart of the Amazon, directly to you.
