Cannabis rolled inside a tobacco cigar wrap or blunt wrap, combining cannabis with a tobacco flavor profile.
A blunt is cannabis rolled inside a tobacco leaf wrap or a cigarillo wrapper that has been emptied of its original tobacco filling. The name originates from the Phillies Blunt cigar brand commonly used for this purpose in the 1980s. Blunts combine the effects of cannabis with a small amount of tobacco, producing a unique buzz.
Culture and Preparation
Blunt culture has deep roots in hip-hop and urban cannabis communities. To roll a blunt, the cigar or cigarillo is split lengthwise, the tobacco is removed, the wrap is filled with ground cannabis (typically 1 to 2 grams), and it is resealed by moistening the edges. Modern blunt wraps made from hemp or other tobacco-free materials offer the blunt experience without the tobacco. Popular wrap brands include Backwoods, Swisher Sweets, Dutch Masters, and hemp-based alternatives like High Hemp.
Considerations
Blunts burn slower than joints due to the thicker wrap, making them well-suited for group sessions. The tobacco in traditional wraps adds nicotine to the experience, which some consumers enjoy for the combined buzz but others avoid for health reasons. The wrap's flavor also influences the overall taste. For consumers who enjoy the slow burn and ritual of blunts but want to avoid tobacco, hemp wraps provide a popular alternative that preserves the form factor without the nicotine content.
