Rolling papers may have different porosity to control ventilation and burning rate. Apart from this, the paper can contain additional substances that slow down the burning, stabilise the paper itself, its smoke, and its ash. White rolling papers usually have a chemical aspect because of the presence of chlorine or calcium carbonate, which help slow down the burn. Flavoured and coloured rolling papers also contain chemicals, or even natural substances that have no real reason to be inhaled. Nowadays, many papers from respectable brands are made without chemical treatments or materials that improve combustion, reducing the possible harm and aftertaste of your smoke.

Most Common Rolling Paper Materials

      Below is a breakdown of the most common materials used to create rolling papers. Some are more popular than others, and some are subject to significant chemical treatment while others are kept relatively unprocessed. Furthermore, each type of paper has a slightly different burn rate and porosity.
     At one point in history, wood pulp rolling papers were among the most popular, and they continue to be used to this day. They are often mixed with other fibres, giving them a texture makes them easy to handle. On average, these papers are thicker than other, newer types, even if they are available in a few different thicknesses—bleached or unbleached. White wood pulp papers are bleached, while brown ones are not. Wood pulp is solid, and the handy texture of these papers makes them convenient for beginners because they hold their shape well, even in presence of a little humidity or shaky, sweaty hands. Wood pulp papers have a medium–fast burn rate and are considered less desirable among most smokers compared to other materials.
     The best rice papers are made from all-natural ingredients, meaning it’s basically just processed and pressed rice. These rolling papers are usually thinner than others, which is a good thing for your lungs but may require a little more effort when rolling. This smooth paper might not grip well between your fingers and is pretty vulnerable to certain conditions, especially damp air. Forget smoking with these papers when it’s raining outside. Rice paper is thin yet burns slowly. The little material used for a single sheet makes it a potentially better choice for your health, and for enjoying your weed without almost any external aftertaste.

     A similar result can be achieved with flax, which is sometimes used in rolling paper blends. There are indeed rolling papers made from 100% flax that can be considered a nice alternative to rice papers. The flax plant is well-known for producing flax seeds, a highly nutritious food that can be processed into a rich oil with a load of potential benefits. Flax fibre is made from the plant's natural long stems, and can be processed into a durable, lightweight, and ultra-fine paper. While they're not super popular, flax papers have a unique, silky texture that feels great in the hands and makes for easy rolling. Flax papers burn nice and slowly, giving you more time to enjoy your smoke, and are also flavourless, meaning they won't impact or alter the flavours/aromas of your herb in any way.

     Industrial hemp has proudly resurged in the last 20 years, and hemp rolling papers were immediately appreciated by the community. First off, these papers help to save trees, as they are made from hemp fibre, not wood pulp. Their colour is mainly light brown because the bleaching process is usually not appreciated by cannabis consumers. Hemp papers are thicker and rougher than rice ones, providing a good grip when rolling. However, they have a similar tendency to absorb (and eventually release) humidity. They have a medium burn rate and go out less often than rice papers. Joints made with hemp papers might take on a delicate aftertaste that won't spoil the aroma of the burning herb.

     Esparto, also known as halfah grass, is a tall perennial grass grown as a crop in North Africa, Spain, and Portugal. Esparto is usually used to make baskets, cardboard, and even clothing, but it can also be processed into paper. To make paper, esparto is typically mixed with roughly 5–10% wood pulp for easier processing. And while esparto paper production dates back many years, esparto rolling papers are very uncommon. And for good reason; esparto has been shown to produce highly carcinogenic smoke when burned. Hence, we do not recommend using esparto papers for smoking!
