If you're a cannabis connoisseur, you're likely familiar with the classic blunt. With its own unique culture, blunts have been a favorite among marijuana enthusiasts for decades. But if you're new to the scene, you may be wondering what exactly a blunt is.
In this guide, we'll dive into everything you need to know about blunts, blunt wraps, and the differences between blunts, joints, and spliffs.
What is a Blunt?
A blunt is a marijuana roll made with hemp wraps or tobacco wrappers. Traditional blunts were made by hollowing out cigars or cigarillos and replacing the tobacco with cannabis. The origins trace back to the mid-1800s when enthusiasts got creative due to the lack of modern smoking tools.
Why is it Called a Blunt?
The name comes from the late 19th century when companies produced rolled cigars with a rounded, broad tip called "blunt cigars." Today, a blunt refers to marijuana rolled in tobacco paper, a hollowed-out cigar, or hemp wrap. Dispensary blunts are typically wrapped in hemp paper to comply with regulations.
What is a Blunt Wrap?
A blunt wrap is the material used to roll a marijuana blunt. Options include:
- Multiple tobacco leaves
- Herbal blends
- Flavored paper
- Hemp wraps
- Glass blunts (reusable devices)
Do Blunts Have Nicotine?
Traditional blunts made with cigar leaves contain nicotine from the wrapping material. However, dispensary blunts are wrapped in hemp leaves or non-tobacco wraps and contain no nicotine.
Blunts vs Joints vs Spliffs: What's the Difference?
Blunts
- Larger and hold more cannabis
- Burn slower
- More potent due to size
- Wrapped in tobacco or hemp paper
Joints
- Rolled in light papers (hemp, rice, wood pulp, or flax)
- Smaller than blunts
- Pure cannabis—no tobacco
Spliffs
- Mix of marijuana and tobacco
- Popular in Europe
- Provides a different buzz
FAQs About Blunts
Can I roll my own blunts?
Absolutely! There may be a learning curve if you're new to rolling, but practice makes perfect.
How much marijuana is in a blunt?
Blunts typically contain about 1.5 times the amount of cannabis as a joint, making them stronger and longer-lasting.
