Zig zag ultra thins or there organic hemp papers are my favorite. I have not seen the organic hemp zig zags mentioned so I’m wondering if there only available in certain spots.
I’ve only found their hemp papers in a few stores. If I can’t find them, Ultra Thins are my go to. Oranges were my go to for like ever until they came out with Ultra thins.
For me organic hemp are nice yes but they have a slight but noticeable flowery smell when burnt
Rice papers are very neutral tasting when burnt , only an ever so very slight hint of sweetness so you get truer taste of bud compared to organic hemp
And rice papers are smother less harsh than organic hemp
Rice papers when burnt on own have the least volume smoke , burnt smoke smell and ash of them all ( I tested it )
That actually makes a difference… lol, whe I was in Europe I noticed quite a few people used filters… not so much here in North America… I mean, I’ll throw a cardboard filter in a big fatty, but that’s just to keep the gummyness from clogging up the end of my doobies
Isn’t this interesting. Before 02 I was mostly a bong guy 3 stage perc, sometimes joint. My preferred papers were Randy’s wired and Juicy Jay flavored. I’ve NEVER been a RAW fan and slippery to roll, although I do have their rolling tray. From 91 to 2000 I was a cig smoker, going hand in hand w bud but I developed GERD. Going to the hospital for multiple tests and inpatient stay I wasn’t allowed to smoke, so I had to have a nicotine patch and it was about 10 days.
After I got out I was DESPERATE to smoke a cig, but something happened, it tasted awful but so did bud smoke. Well I kept testing to see if this was permanent. The bud flavors returned, but smoking a cig, every time I tried I would put it out. The next several weeks stayed the same, I ruled it being over and felt if I’m putting smoke in my lungs I get more benefit from cannabis. Later I would hook up w a new friend but he was known as a wigga and would tolerate what he calls papers “white boys” but every time we’d get together to chill and smoke, he’d bring Backwoods to roll. Well at first I was repulsed, but since I wasn’t a grower anymore then all I had access to was the street commercial and rolled in a Backwood that harsh dry crap was palatable at least. That changed my perception on blunts in general. It was a moister smoother smoke as I got used to them. Eventually I got into rolling them myself and it takes skill to twist those up properly. I considered the blunt a compromise but will never smoke cigs ever again . When he couldn’t get Backwoods he brought Game and White Owls…
During the summer of 2004, I was at the eastern shore of MD and this convince store had the first blunt wraps by Royal Blunts, well that was the end of the Backwoods for me personally. Finding these royal blunts was like a mission of sorts to get 20-30 packs. Some stores only having a few left in the box. I could tell these were really gaining popularity and harder to get. I decided there has got to be a way to order these wholesale by the box. And I found a company not far from me that did. I stuck with royal blunts for a while, but one tube per pack made it costly per month.
Soon new brands emerged, Cyclones, Kingpin, and Zig Zag. I tried them all, but Zig zag gave you 2 tubes which I spilt into halves for a regular 1.5 size papers. So I got 4 per pack. Zig Zag wraps are so light and mellow, the flavor infusion doesn’t interfere w terpenes at all. Always clean and primarily far less dirty resin hits than pipe/bong, the moisture helps for slower and smoother even burning. I rarely have runs from wraps. Anyway the point is using blunts/wraps isn’t going to make a person go back to cigs if they quit. The nicotine is extremely minute in content and so is the tobacco. I vowed never to smoke cigs after a blessing in disguise allowed me to kick it, but didn’t expect to meet someone that changed my perception about using blunts to have a smoother cleaner smoke and most I’ve introduced this to, have been surprised how nice and tasty wraps are. I must be like one of few outcasts on OG who uses wraps. Oh yeah I’ve tried the hemp wraps, nowhere near the same or flavor. Horrible, I consider it like Platinum blunts over saturated flavor and nasty aftertaste. Maybe in few more years they’ll have it right Also too dry and cracks rolling up IMO.
