Joints come in all shapes and sizes, and people have become creative with rolling different types of joints. Whether you're a beginner smoker or an experienced one, it's always fun to experiment with different styles. In this blog, we discuss all kinds of joints you might encounter, so you can expand your knowledge and perhaps gain inspiration for your next smoking experience!
Tip: Don't be afraid to experiment! There are so many types of joints you can try. Start with the basics and gradually work your way up to the more complex styles.
The Classic Joint
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Ingredients | Tobacco and weed |
| Difficulty Level | Easy |
| Popularity | High, mainly due to its simplicity |
The classic joint is perhaps the most well-known type. This is the type that most people recognize: a mix of tobacco and weed, tightly rolled in a long rolling paper. The classic joint is popular because of its simplicity and ease of use. You don't need much to roll one: a rolling paper, tobacco, weed, and a filter. The result is a joint that is easy to smoke and is often shared among friends. This joint has remained popular over the years due to its accessibility and the nostalgia associated with it. It is a symbol of the original cannabis culture and remains a favorite because of the familiar smoking experience.
King Size Joint
- More content: Larger amount of weed for a more intense experience.
- Longer smoking: Perfect for group sessions or if you just want to enjoy a bit more.
- Heavier effect: Suitable for experienced smokers.
For those who want just a little more, there is the King Size joint. This joint is larger than the classic joint and usually contains more weed, providing a more intense smoking experience. King Size rolling papers are longer, giving you more room to use a generous amount. Compared to the classic joint, the King Size joint offers a longer smoking duration and a more powerful high, ideal for when you are with a group or just want to enjoy your smoking moment a little more. The larger amount of weed also makes the experience somewhat heavier, making it more suitable for experienced smokers seeking a more intense experience.
The Triple Tipper
The Triple Tipper is a unique joint that has three filters at the bottom, which come together at one point. This creates a thicker, sturdier joint. But contrary to what you might think, you can't smoke it with three people at the same time. Unless you really want to share the same joint with your buddies while packing your heads together like a bunch of sardines, but honestly, that sounds a bit impractical (and uncomfortable). Rolling a Triple Tipper requires a bit more skill, but the result is definitely worth it. It offers a fun challenge for experienced rollers and provides a unique smoking experience that you will surely remember.
Tip: Practice rolling multiple regular joints first before attempting to make a Triple Tipper. This will give you more confidence in your technique and make it easier to roll this more complicated joint.
Crossed Joint (or Kruisjoint) - Known from Movies like 'Pineapple Express'
The Crossed Joint, or cross joint, is a joint that literally has the shape of a cross. This type of joint became famous in popular movies like 'Pineapple Express', and it is an impressive way to demonstrate how good you are at rolling joints. A cross joint consists of a regular joint with a smaller joint that sticks through it. This results in a joint that burns at four ends, providing an intense and funny smoking experience.
Twisted Joint
A Twisted Joint is a joint where multiple types of cannabis or different flavored rolling papers have been used to create a twisted look. This type of joint is not only fun to look at, but also offers a unique flavor experience. By combining different flavors, you can experiment and discover your own favorites.
| Popular Combinations | Effect |
|---|---|
| Lemon & Berries | Refreshing and fruity |
| Mint & Chocolate | Sweet and invigorating |
Twisted Joints are perfect for those who want a bit more variety in their smoking experience.
Tulip Joint
The Tulip Joint is a classic among creative joints. This joint is shaped like a tulip and is often rolled for special occasions or parties. It takes some effort to roll a Tulip Joint, but the end result is definitely worth it. Tulip Joints often contain a large amount of weed and burn slowly, making them ideal for larger groups.
Backroll Joint
A Backroll Joint is a joint that is rolled in a special way, using as little rolling paper as possible. This is done by burning off the excess paper after rolling the joint. This results in a joint that tastes less harsh and burns better, because there is less paper. The Backroll technique is especially popular among people who want a pure smoking experience without the taste of too much rolling paper.
