Wholesale Kambo: Amazon Purification Tradition

Kambo is the dried secretion of the giant monkey frog (Phyllomedusa bicolor), a tree frog native to the Amazon basin. The secretion is collected by the Matsés and related peoples following traditional protocols that do not harm the frog, and dried onto sticks for storage and transport. In ceremony, small amounts are applied to the skin through small burns, initiating a brief but intense physical purification process.

Kambo is a specialist product. The purification response is strong, and working with kambo requires knowledge of preparation, contraindications, and aftercare. The wholesale market for kambo serves experienced practitioners, retreat centres with skilled facilitators, and specialist suppliers.

Product and Sourcing

Our Matses Kambo Stick is produced by the Matses people of the Peruvian Amazon using traditional harvesting and drying methods. The product is sourced to support indigenous livelihoods and ensure authenticity. Each stick is dried and vacuum-sealed to maintain potency during storage and shipping.

Shelf life is long when stored correctly — kambo dried on sticks and kept in a cool, dry environment away from humidity maintains potency for extended periods. This makes it a low-spoilage product suitable for stocking in reasonable quantities.
