- guy using flavoured rolling papers
Writing this in the aftermath of trying flavoured rolling papers, the taste is still coating the back of my throat. Flavoured rolling papers are fucking useless and taste like shit. Myself and three fellow curious minds sat down like 30 minutes ago and had three joints with three different papers. We consisted of two veterans, one well-versed toker, and a ‘doesn’t really smoke’ type. We had a decent range of experiences, yet seemed to agree pretty quickly on what this was like. The weed was great. We began with a classic zig-zag paper joint—easily the best time. Then despite getting gradually higher, we gradually had worse and worse things to say. The joints actually looked really cute in their zany wraps though—one of them had little peaches on it. Adorable.
They were also exactly $4.20 each? Which means they’re either over or underpriced for the sake of a weed gag, and that’s dumb. They’re overpriced regardless, actually.
Candy floss flavour
First off, the paper is blue and there’s just something wrong with that. It’s looks like we rolled with a fucking stickynote. The paper did nothing to help the taste, feeling, or enjoyment of the bud. The smoke felt thicker in no decent way, and something just didn’t sit right in your throat. Couldn’t taste the weed any better; if anything it made the taste weaker and the feeling harsher.
Smokeability: 5/10
Flavour: 2/10
Enjoyment: eh
Peaches n’ Cream
Okay ADMITTEDLY this one actually had a taste to it of general sweetness, and it was actually okay. However, it made already-beautiful resin feel like sugar on your lips, and that feeling wasn’t actually that dope. The cream flavour wasn’t really evident, so in light of that I would suggest they simply revoke the “n’ cream” from its title
Smokeability: 6/10
Flavour: 4/10
Enjoyment: was whatever
Green Apple
This shit was fucked. We all immediately made faces when passing it round, and although the pure shock of how terrible it could have possibly been was a good laugh, it wasn’t that chill. It tasted like detergent and stung the lungs like a burnt vape coil. Massive no.
Smokeability: just don’t
Flavour: shite
Enjoyment: no
Conclusion
We found that although flavoured rolling papers were a good gimmick and were actually enjoyable to talk shit about and laugh at, they aren’t worth the buy. When you have good weed, good company, and normal fucking rolling papers,
you don’t need much else. Actually, “Planet Caravan” by Black Sabbath can never hurt a sesh. It’s so dope. Plain papers can and always will do the job. Also, if you want something harsher, just use chop.
don't use flavoured rolling papers/10
