Raw Wide Tips Booklet

There are no stupid questions, only stupid answers – rolling papers are a special type of headshop product that allows you to make your own joints/spliffs, by rolling them with your hands. Rolling papers have been used since the 16th century and today there are various types of papers made from various materials, that will suit any smokers’ needs.

They are the most popular way to smoke your cannabis and the most convenient tool in any smoker’s toolbelt.

Most common rolling papers used today are made either from hemp, cellulose (transparent), or rice. Some more rare materials can be bamboo or even flax, but most papers we know and love are either hemp rolling papers or rice rolling papers.

Rolling paper thickness plays a huge role when it comes to how well your joint will burn. We are talking parameters like burning speed, evenness of the burn (can be blamed on rolling style/skill), and of course – will your joint break apart before you even lit it or not (this is definitely mostly a skill question!).

When it comes to choosing the right thickness for a cannabis joint-most users tend to lean towards using thinner rolling papers. Yes! Thin! Thinner papers will burn very slowly, which will allow you to have a better experience and waste less herb. Also, thinner papers will add less unwanted taste to your smoking experience.

The thin line at the top of each rolling paper that when licked (moistened) will make your paper stick together is usually made from rolling paper gum. Most high-quality papers use sugar-based glue, which is known to be quite safe to smoke. Other very popular rolling paper gum types can be made from Acacia tree resins.

A tip is tiny peace of smoking equipment that will work as a filter in your blunt/spliff/joint. They can be also referred to as a roach tip, smoking tip, crutch, or just simply – filter tip.

The easiest way to make a trip is to just roll a tiny piece of the carton into a cylinder. This way the only purpose the tip has is to make sure you don’t burn your fingers with the last puffs of your smoke.

If you are looking for a healthier version of smoking, special charcoal tips can be bought to actually filter the smoke before it reaches your lungs.

In cannabis smoking culture, a cone defines a prerolled joint that is easy to use – you just have to fill it with preferred herbs of your choice and there is no actual rolling process involved.

Cones can be be made from paper, but also they can be rolled from a blunt wrap or similar blunt-like material.

Blunt is a special type of rolling material that is used to roll your cannabis to feel/look like a cigar. Most blunt wraps are made out of tobacco, which allows you to burn your cannabis easier and slowlier.
