Stoners are always in pursuit of the most natural process to smoke our herbs. It’s obvious to want to consume what the earth has blessed us in ways that are eco-friendly and natural. That’s where hemp and blunt wraps come in. While hemp wraps are made of the hemp plant, blunt wraps are made from tobacco leaves.
HEMP WRAPS
Hemp wraps are a tobacco-free alternative to traditional blunt wraps and are made from hemp matter with less than 0.3% THC. Given that tobacco can be addictive in nature, hemp wraps provide a tobacco-free, and non-synthetic solution.
Hemp wraps can be paper-based, these wraps are made from thin paper sheets, which are similar to traditional rolling paper, but sturdier and more durable. They can also be pure hemp fiber wraps, where hemp fibers are mashed into a pulp and then pressed into thin sheets. No additives, No adhesives. Pure Hemp.
Before we dive further into the benefits of Hemp Wraps, there’s one misconception that needs to be debunked:
HEMP WRAPS DO NOT GET YOU HIGH
Hemp Wraps are made from parts of the hemp plant with very minimal THC, typically the fibers and stalks of the plant. According to the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act of 1985, industrial hemp is permitted as long as it contains less than 0.3% THC. This amount typically will not get you high.
What the Hemp Wrap serves as is, a vessel. Here are the benefits of using a hemp wrap:
-
Organic: As mentioned earlier, Hemp Wraps contain no synthetic products or adhesives. It's all natural! Organic hemp is also grown without pesticides or insecticides, ensuring purity.
-
Tobacco-Free: Hemp wraps cut out your reliance on tobacco entirely. If you fear an impending nicotine addiction, it’s best to steer clear entirely and enjoy a hemp-based experience.
-
Flavour: Hemp wraps can either come in mild flavours, which doesn’t overpower your c*nnabis and brings out the unique terpene profile of the strain you’re smoking. Or else, you can get a variety of natural flavours as well, like Honey or Fruity Banana flavours.
-
Slow Burn: Possibly the biggest benefit of Hemp Wraps is their slow, yet even, burn. This ensures your herbs don’t go to waste at all and you make the most of your supply.

BLUNT ROLLS
Blunt Rolls are rolled from tobacco leaves. Originating from the hollowing out of inexpensive cigars in New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore in the 90s, to avoid detection during stringent, anti-drug times.
Since then, Blunts have been commonplace in pop culture with rappers in the 90s in New York, but it also has been associated with Nirvana and Pearl Jam within the Rock genre. While joints and pipes were co-opted by white hippie culture, blunts became the vibe of the African-American counterculture, represented by rappers like 2Pac, Snoop Dogg, Methodman, Redman and The Notorious B.I.G.
But it was rapper Ice Cube who brought the culture over to the mainstream in his screenplay for Friday (1995), where Chris Tucker passes his character a smoke, and they blaze away the weekend and try to stay out of trouble.
At the same time, Kids (1995) premiered in theatres. It was a coming-of-age Hollywood film which showed an honest portrayal of teenagers at the time and did not shy away from portraying the negatives of an irresponsible smoking lifestyle.
It’s important to note the risks of smoking blunts as well. The high tobacco content in a blunt wrap can be risky if smoked in excess. A blunt does contain a lot more herbs than your regular joint though. That being said blunts leave a bad lingering smell quite often.
If you want to venture smoking blunts responsibly and want to dodge the smelly aroma it leaves, get yourself a Double Platinum Blunt Wrap available in Wet Cherry, Pina Colada, Pisco Sour, and White Grape flavors. The freshness of a blunt meets the succulent flavor to bring you the trip of a lifetime!
While Hemp Rolls are safer and surprisingly legal, Blunt Rolls are more historic in the c*nnabis movement. Either way, there’s a whole world of options to explore outside joints, bongs and pipes, and Jonnybaba has you covered on it all!
