JAGUA - WHAT IS IT?

WHAT IS JAGUA?

I guess you must have wondered if Jagua was spelled wrong. Well, this is quite different from the animal which most people know ― Jaguar. Jagua is a tattoo product that is obtained from the juice that is extracted from the Genipa Americana fruit. The Genipa Americana fruit tree actually grows in South America and has served several South Americans native groups as a natural decorating tool that also helps prevent bites from mosquitos. The Genipa Americana belongs to the Genipa species which can be found in the Caribbean, northern South America, and southern Mexico.
