El Jiibie más conocido como Mambe proviene de la hoja de coca y su consumo es muy antiguo en las culturas indígenas. Esta hoja es traída del chagra ( pequeño cultivo a dentro de la selva amazónica), posteriormente es tostada en un horno artesanal y mezclada junto con la hoja de Yarumo, se tritura hasta quedar en polvo fino. El Mambe suele acompañarse con un poco de Ambil (tabaco cocinado con sal vegetal).
El Mambe se consume masticando una o dos cucharadas, con la saliva se forma una bola que se coloca al interior del carrillo, una vez tienes el mambe en la boca puedes iniciar un proceso de salivación para así obtener una pasta masticable la cual hará que se liberen fácilmente sus sustancias con las propiedades benéficas del mambe; Su consumo es particularmente social pues se dice que el Mambe significa la palabra de vida, el Ambil el pensamiento, donde surge el poder de la palabra.
Esta ancestral práctica es realizada con propósitos espirituales y medicinales por los indígenas de la Amazonía desde tiempos inmemoriales. Al mambear, se envuelve generalmente todas las formas de consumir hoja de coca, en la sierra se consume la hoja entera, mezclada con cal obtenida de la trituración en un poporo de conchas marinas. En países como Perú y en Bolivia se consume en té o masticada con lejía, y en la Amazonia se ingiere en polvo con Ambil, habitualmente los indígenas cuando mambean no comen.

Bulk bags of coca leaves are sold in local markets and by street vendors.[citation needed] ****The activity of chewing coca is called mambear, chacchar or acullicar,***** borrowed from Quechua, coquear (northern Argentina), or in Bolivia, picchar, derived from the Aymara language. The Spanish masticar is also frequently used, along with the slang term "bolear," derived from the word "bola" or ball of coca pouched in the cheek while chewing. Typical coca consumption is about two ounces per day[citation needed], and contemporary methods are believed to be unchanged from ancient times.[citation needed] Coca is kept in a woven pouch (chuspa or huallqui). A few leaves are chosen to form a quid (acullico) held between the mouth and gums. Doing so may cause a tingling and numbing sensation in their mouths. (The common dental anaesthetic Novocaine has a similar effect.) Chewing coca leaves is most common in indigenous communities across the central Andean region[citation needed], particularly in places like the highlands of Colombia, Bolivia and Peru, where the cultivation and consumption of coca is as much a part of the national culture similar to chicha, like wine is to France or beer is to Germany.[citation needed] It also serves as a powerful symbol of indigenous cultural and religious identity, amongst a diversity of indigenous nations throughout South America.[citation needed]
