Peruvian Torch 10–12 cm
The Peruvian Torch is native to the Andes in Peru and Ecuador. There, the cactus has been used for centuries because of its powerful effects. The Peruvian Torch contains mescaline and, according to many researchers, is the most potent and magical species of all. So get ready for a mind-blowing trip! According to ancient tribes, mescaline induces extraordinary visions, prophetic and predictive dreams, and insights into your life situation.
Are you a beginner user or grower? Don’t worry—even then, the Peruvian Torch is in good hands with you. It has few demands on its growing environment. Of course, it does enjoy a bit of sunshine.
How do you consume the Peruvian Torch?
There are two ways to consume the Peruvian Torch. The true diehard chews on the cactus. Fortunately, it’s not a painful affair, since it has no thorns. What does make chewing a bit uncomfortable is its bitter taste and toughness. But actually, that last part comes in handy. Because the slimy, tough cactus is hard to chew, it takes quite a while to get through it. Exactly what’s needed to achieve the maximum effect.
Chew as much as possible and try to swallow as little as possible. The mucous membranes in your mouth absorb the mescaline. Be warned: the bitter taste makes almost every user vomit. So make sure to have a bucket ready.
The other option for inducing psychedelic experiences is brewing tea. To do this, first dry the plant and grind it into a powder. Then brew the tea from this. Of course, you can also simply add it to another drink, such as fruit juice.
The Trip
A dose of Peruvian Torch can give you six to twelve hours of an insane trip. For a mild to moderate trip, use a piece no longer than 25 centimeters. With a larger piece, you can expect a pretty intense trip. The effects kick in after an hour to an hour and a half. They reach their peak after two to two and a half hours.
