Which is the best Blunt?

Rolling tobacco or CBD in Blunt wraps is now a firmly established practice. This wrap, which came straight from the United States, has since found followers all over the world. But which is the best Blunt? This article sets out what to look at before choosing.

What is a Blunt and where does it come from?

The Blunt is a rolling wrap for tobacco, herbs or CBD. It takes its name from the Phillies Blunt cigar brand, and the word “Blunt” itself comes from the New World, chiefly from African-American culture in the United States.

The Blunt was soon put in the spotlight by hip-hop culture and appeared in videos by American rappers. It took a few years for France to take an interest in Blunts in turn: it was only from 2022, the year CBD was legalised, that they became widely used there.

Blunts are larger than conventional rolling papers and have a particular taste when burning, which is what sets them apart for people who roll their own tobacco.

The most widely bought Blunt brands

Several brands are now present on this market. The best known is the one that started it all, Phillies Blunt. Blackwood is also widely bought. As with Phillies Blunt, its Blunt wraps are made from genuine cigar leaves and contain tobacco, which gives them a taste and a texture of their own.

The Juicy Jay’s brand has existed since 1980 and offers flavoured wraps. The papers are carefully made and the flavour list is long, with mango, sugar, refreshing mint and many others. The same is true of the G-Rollz brand.

Lastly, the Kush brand stands out for its plant-based options, since its Blunt wraps are made from natural hemp. Torn between the flavoured versions and the plant-based ones? Chapo Hemp offers wraps that are both flavoured and made from hemp.

As you will have gathered, whether you prefer plain tobacco wraps, flavoured versions or hemp-based ones, the choice among Blunt brands is now a wide one.
