El ritual de la cohoba es la ceremonía en donde los Tainos pueden conversar con sus espíritus ancestrales, mejor conocidos como los cemí.  Es dirigido por un behique, shaman Taíno, y todos los miembros de la comunidad participan.  Se pulverizan las semillas del árbol de cohoba y se mezclan con tabaco y conchas.  La mezcla luego se inhala con el uso de un inhalador y, a mediados del trance, se abren las puertas al mundo shamanico.
