ALL ABOUT FLAVORED ROLLING PAPERS

ALL ABOUT FLAVORED ROLLING PAPERS

    HISTORY The first flavored rolling papers were introduced in 1906 by the RizLa+ company, the second-oldest rolling paper company ever formed. Their original flavors were menthol and strawberry. At the time the papers were a bit of a novelty, and to some extent they still are. From the original flavors of menthol and strawberry, the flavor selection has come to include nearly everything imaginable — from fruit flavors like banana and green apple, to liquor flavors like rum and tequila, to other food food flavors such as peaches-and-cream, chocolate chip cookie dough, and even bacon. Flavored Vs. Non-Flavored The appeal of flavored rolling papers is debatable. On the one hand, many purists maintain that flavored rolling papers get in the way of enjoying the taste of the tobacco or other other herb that is being smoked; some brands of flavored rolling papers burn less evenly, or catch less easily; some users of the papers find that whatever compound is used to produce the flavor also produces irritation of the throat. In general, the flavor of the rolling paper has little effect on the tobacco itself, though it can be tasted on the lips. On the other hand, some people feel that the flavor has a mellowing effect on what is being smoked.

BECAUSE SIZE MATTERS: ROLLING PAPER SIZES

Cigarette Rolling paper by SizeRolling paper sizes is a misnomer; the sizes vary perceptibly from manufacturer to manufacturer. However, for the relative amateur, it can be harrowing to decide which sizes to buy, especially since it's rare to have been acquainted with all from the beginning of their journey itself.Here, we'll be elucidating the different sizes of rolling papers that are generally available in the market (and, of course, on our website).Thus, with a heavy dose of generalizing, the available paper sizes are:Single Wide - The single wide rolling paper, though varying from brand to brand, is generally around 70mm in length and 34-36mm in width(2.75 x 1.4 inches). This size, being considered fairly popular with the roll your own community, will have you needing a 70mm cigarette roller if you use them.1 1/4 - Being able to hold approximately 25% more tobacco than the Single Wide (hence, giving it its name), the 1 1/4 rolling paper is 76-78mm in length and 45-48mm in width (3.1 x 1.8 inches). Again, with all sizes, these will also vary slightly with the brand. This size is considered amongst the most popular ones, often called the "French Size" or "Spanish". For the more distinguished, you'll need a 79mm cigarette roller.1 1/2 - As the name implies, it can hold approximately 50% more tobacco than the Single Wide. The 1 1/2 is 76-78mm long and 60-62mm wide (3.1 x 2.4 inches). Having the same length as a 1 1/4 rolling paper, it will roll a bigger diameter cigarette due to the width. Not quite as popular as the other sizes, they are still widely available. You'll need a 79mm cigarette roller for this particular size. Double Wide - Good guess! The double wide can hold around twice the tobacco a single wide can. These are around 76-78mm long and 63-88mm wide (3.1 x 2.5-3.5 inches). This particular size of paper can vary greatly from brand to brand and is rarely used by smokers. Being one of the hardest sizes to find, these will roll cigarettes of colossal diameters. A 79 mm roller would suffice for this size. King Size - A King Size rolling paper is one of the biggest standard rolling paper sizes in the market, with a high level of consistency across brands. These are 100-105mm long and 55-60mm wide (4 x 2 inches). There is a fair deal of confusion regarding the name 'King size': because a king size cigarette is usually 84mm long, while the rolling paper size is around 100-105mm long. They're popular, easy to find, and available across a wide range of brands. A 110mm cigarette roller would be needed to roll these papers. King Size Slim - King Size Slim Papers, one of the more liked ones, are 110mm in length and around 42-45mm in width. With their popularity matching that of King size, the lesser amount of paper requires a slightly more seasoned roller, but gives a slow burn, giving a better smoke. They're available across most of the regularly available brands. A 110mm cigarette roller could be used for these papers. Supernatural - The boss, the emperor, the alpha and the omega when it comes to rolling paper; these babies are colossal. Ranging around 300mm in length and under 50mm wide (Yes, that's 12 inches long), you can be sure that the men would be emasculated and the ladies would blush on checking this mammoth out. It takes some practice and a great deal of experimentation to decide which size suits you the best, but even if you chance upon that perfect combination, never stop trying new things. With dozens of sizes, flavors (Yeah, there are rolling paper flavors), textures (rice, hemp, and transparent) and types (Try out some Cigar rolling paper, they're called blunts), you can be sure that you won't be running out of stuff to try anytime soon.And whenever you'll be looking for something new to try, we'll be here to help you out.Cheers!

The proliferation of pot related business means that the business owners are finding ways to make their brand to stand out in the crowd. When you think of celebrities and pot, there are many names spring into your mind. Music icon Willie Nelson supporter of Marijuana, Bob Dylan, Miley Cyrus, Steve Jobs, Bob Marley...So, here is the list of those celebrities who promote smoking and smoking accessories that too without any hesitation.  Bob Marley The legend is no more among us, he has been dead for more than three decades now but still he is live among us and his secret for Marijuana was no secret. At the end of 2014, the Marley family teamed up with pot focused venture to announce a series of cannabis strains inspired by a legendary singer and also as a part of a brand called Marley Natural.  Wiz Khalifa Wiz Khalifa the ‘Black and Yellow’ rapper last year has lined up a Marijuana sponsorship through San Francisco based medical dispensary that sells Khalifa Kush cannabis strain. As per the agreement he gets all his weeds for free.  Snoop Dogg The rapper also known as Snoop Lion has never been bashful about his Marijuana- smoking habit, it was even claimed that he smoked a pot in a bathroom at the White House. So it was not at all astonishing when Snoop Dogg teamed up with a vaporizer company, Grenco Science to create his own series of vaporizer products known by the name, The Double G Series  Justin Timberlake In an interview Justin Timberlake confirms socially that he smoked weed, the reason why he smokes is it makes him stop thinking about things that he don’t wants to. Though he tried to quit in 2003 and he actually stopped smoking for three to nine months but after that he says he was so stoned.  Cameron Diaz One of the finest actresses we have and Justin Timberlake’s ex girlfriend is also no strange to weed, she went to high school with Snoop Dogg.

ROLLING WITH THE TIMES: THE EVOLUTION OF ROLLING PAPERS

People find art in various things. They can be masterpieces like the Mona Lisa or monuments like Taj Mahal, or something as mundane and humble as a well-rounded roti, depending on the perspective.   Similarly, for a hippie there cant be a more beautiful People find art in various things. They can be masterpieces like the Mona Lisa or monuments like Taj Mahal, or something as mundane and humble as a well-rounded roti, depending on the perspective.Similarly, for a hippie there can’t be a more beautiful work of art than a well-rolled joint that is smooth and hits the spot. One is deemed to be a certified stoner if he/she can fashion the quintessential doobie. And while the actual stuff that goes in is quite obviously the most important part of a joint, the quality of the rolling paper in use is vital for its flavour, robustness and flammability. Rolling paper have been used to roll handmade cigarettes and weed joints for more than a hundred years now, but it took a long time for these specialty papers to come into the picture. Cigars and pipes were the instruments of choice to smoke tobacco till about 17th century. Since there was no concept of a separate paper for rolling your stuff, any and every type of paper seen around was used. Of course, print on such types of paper would give out various kinds of fumes, and it was the Europeans who first realised the need to have a separate type of paper for this purpose. Enter the rolling paper, only not so much as paper but as enormous sheets, which gradually gave way to papers pre-cut, available in size of 78mm x 44mm, first sold in Spain in the small town of Alcoy, hence the name given to these as Spanish cut papers or Spanish size (the town currently is home to RAW, a leading manufacturer of rolling paper). Due to heavy taxes levied on tobacco in Great Britain, a smaller size was preferred that held less tobacco (70mm x 38mm), which came to be known as the Standard Size. The British referred to the Spanish Size as “One and a Quarter”, since it could load about a quarter more. The name has stuck since. Rolling papers available in the market are mostly made out of plant fibres such as rice straw, hemp, flax etc. There may be chemicals like Calcium Carbonate added on to increase permeability, or some dyes in minimal amounts to influence colour and fumes.There are companies coming up with different innovations to improve the experience of smoking. There are natural unbleached papers and slow burning papers available in the market now. There are tobacco papers available that are notably sweeter than hemp papers (mainly used to roll blunts) And although the no. of cigarette smokers using rolling papers may be very less compared to the ones using it to smoke pot, the choices are better and safer for all now.Feel like rolling one, yet? Get crackin’.
SMOKING IT UP - BONG VS. JOINT | OUTONTRIP.COM

SMOKING IT UP - BONG VS. JOINT | OUTONTRIP.COM

We look into the three main arguments in the debate between bongs and joints – portability, smoking experience and health factors. Which is better for your smoke - Bong or Joint?  Once you get into your groove of smoking, you start to wonder what would be the best way to get the experience of the herb. Rolling papers and Bongs are the most common ways of smoking out there and there is justifiably a lot of debate about which is the best. This is a discussion best had with a couple of experienced friends after a great smoke, but nevertheless, we’ll try to shed some light on the matter. Portability In this category, the plain old paper has the bong beat fair and square. Rolling papers are easy to carry around and easy to dispose of or hide should the need arise. There is no simpler way to carry around a high than a pack of paper and a baggy of the herb. Bongs on the other hand, small as they can be, cannot be hidden or carried around easily. In a situation where mobility is important or discretion is needed, the bong is the wrong sort of accessory for your smoke. There have been instances where people have eaten papers when the situation went south, but just try doing that with a bong. Where would you hide it? Smoking Experience This one is the most subjective one of all. Personal preferences come into play so strongly on this question that our benign smoking community picks up arms in support of their preferred method and goes off to fight internet wars. On the whole, the joint experience is a little harsher than the bong smoke. Bongs cool down the smoke considerably and offer a smoother hit of the herb. On the other hand, bongs can be too much to handle since a lot of smoke needs to be inhaled in a single go. Sharing wise, both are equally handy and can be passed around in a circle of friends. Joints though are the more common way to smoke being easily accessible and on and on it goes. There is really no winning this argument. Health factors This is a tricky one to answer, mostly because studies into marijuana are severely limited due to the legal status of the drug across the globe. Still, a recent study was published which compared the health effects of smoking a joint versus smoking a water pipe (most commonly a bong). Here the news is bad for bong lovers. The study found that though bongs filter out more tar and other toxic stuff in the smoke, it also filters out more THC. THC (delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol) is the major psychoactive ingredient in weed, the chemical that is attributed to all the health benefits of smoking. Since more THC is filtered out, the smoker needs to inhale more and more smoke out of a bong to get the weed high, which leads to greater ingestion of harmful chemicals. The unfiltered joint surprisingly performed extremely well in this study against the bong.   Don’t despair yet our bong enthusiast friends. The study did no research in the noxious gases and fumes that the bong would potentially also filter out which a joint simply cannot. Until more research is done in to the full effects of one type of smoking versus the other, a decision cannot be made for either side. So there we have it – the old debate rages on with no clear winner. It’s anyone’s game at this point.

WHAT ARE HEMP ROLLING PAPERS?

WHAT ARE HEMP ROLLING PAPERS?

Rolling Papers have been around for centuries. It is certain that, even before rolling papers began to be mass-produced in the 18th century, the concept was still there: people have used spare bits of paper to create cigarettes for ages.   Rolling Papers have been around for centuries. It is certain that, even before rolling papers began to be mass-produced in the 18th century, the concept was still there: people have used spare bits of paper to create cigarettes for ages. Ever since production the production of rolling papers began, though, innovation has occurred steadily. One of the first manufacturers of the paper, the RizLa+ company, originally made their papers out of tissue based on wood pulp. Later they changed their formula to use rice paper rather than wood-based paper. Other companies user various combinations of wood pulp, rice, hemp, and flax. These days, many people are very concerned about the materials they put into their bodies, and there is a preference for all-natural products - like hemp rolling papers. As a result, among those who roll their own cigarettes, there is a rising preference for all-natural rolling papers. It is certainly true that some rolling papers contain additives, particularly those with artificial flavorings. Although there is no widely-available and conclusive evidence on the negative health effects of rolling papers containing such additives, many people prefer all-hemp rolling papers for this reason. Hemp is a soft and durable fiber, and is used for various purposes, including paper and textiles. Products made from hemp are likely to have less of a negative environmental impact than some other products, since the growing of hemp requires few pesticides and no herbicides. Some smokers particularly those who consider themselves connoisseurs of tobacco, prefer hemp rolling papers for reasons besides its natural composition and the lack of negative ecological effects. Many people find that rolling papers in general interfere with their smoking experience by contributing their own flavors to the what is being smoked. With hemp this is less of a concern, since hemp is usually experienced either as tasteless or as having a pleasant, "organic" flavor. On the other hand, some people find that, while hemp's flavor is not intrusive, it can lessen the flavor of what is being smoked.     Hemp papers are also a good choice for those just beginning to learn to roll cigarettes. One of our most popular pure hemp papers are raw rolling papers. While rice paper is another popular choice for rolling paper material, it tends to be thin and difficult to grip. Thin rolling paper does allow for longer burning, but it also makes for trickier rolling. In general, hemp rolling paper is a matter of preference, and it is suitable for beginners and experts alike.
