In the world of herbalists, there are many ways to enrich the sensations gained in the process of smoking potions. Bright, exotic pleasure that does not compare with anything else is the blunt.
What is a blunt? How did he earn his popularity?
New York Jamaican Culture
According to one version, smoking of blunt has spread in America, and then around the world, from New York natives of Jamaica, who began to use cigars as material for making joins (cigarette rolls).
The name Blunt is known to come from the brand of cigars most commonly used for this purpose - Phillies Blunt.
The Jamaicans opened the cigar, gutted its contents and poured inside a new smoking mixture.
What does blunt mean?
"Blunt" - so on the street they call a cigarette-rolled cigarette. Another value is a leaf of a specially selected variety of tobacco.
Today, many manufacturers are known, thanks to which you can purchase a separate “cigar sheet” - blunt. What is he curious about?
The tobacco from which the joint sheet is made is treated in a special way - it is homogenized and aromatized. According to experts, it is easy and pleasant to twist the rolls of the blunts received.
When used, pleasure is delivered not only by the process of inhaling smoke, but also by the sensation of a special refreshing taste that the blunt has.
What is so special about this smoke? Blunts are believed to be much stronger material for cigarette rolls than ordinary tobacco, and they burn much longer.
About species diversity
Blunts are different: with the aroma of vanilla, coffee, berries, fruits, etc. Good blunts are placed in special soft or hard sealed packages in which the aroma and shape of the paper are best preserved.
In specialized stores, the assortment of products is constantly updated, smokers can choose the most diverse blunt to their taste. What is interesting can be offered to them? A huge selection - from classic sheets to already twisted cones, environmentally friendly material of different sizes and shapes.
Among the most popular brands are Wraps Kingping, Wrap, Juicy, Cyclones, King Pin, Blunt Wrap, True Blunt, etc.
The best
The most popular scented blunts are traditionally Juicy. Modern conditions for the manufacture and processing of tobacco in the Dominican Republic have provided the products with a greater saturation of taste and aroma. In the manufacture of blunts, they use a special, patented, flavored triple-dip system that moisturizes and preserves the quality of products for a long time.
King Pin is considered to be a comparative newcomer to the premium brand stamp market. Among some others, they are made in the Philippines. The hot sun is an ideal condition for the ripening of tobacco varieties, suitable for the manufacture of the highest quality blanks. Each King Pin pack contains not the usual two, but three whole blunts! This is, without a doubt, a huge advantage of this brand in comparison with competitors. Tobacco leaves are produced in 14 flavors, among which anyone can easily choose their favorite.
Cyclones were the first in the world to create flavored cones that gained popularity due to their unique property - slow burning. They have received recognition from consumers who, for one reason or another, do not want to twist the joint on their own. The cones are also attractive in that due to the double paper, they burn much more slowly than their counterparts - sheets, in addition, in their composition, in addition to homogenized tobacco, there is a natural sheet, which improves the taste.
A limited series of King Pin special blueprints is The Notorious BIG, created in honor of the famous rapper. Available in 5 forms of the same name as the songs of this artist. At one time, the sales of these cigarettes exceeded all expectations. They are especially popular among fans of rap and hip-hop.
About popularity
Blueprints are indeed extremely popular in the world of hip-hop culture. Artists such as Cypress Hill, Snoop Dogg, Method Man, and others actively glorify their favorite smoke in their works.
Russian rap also did not ignore this topic. So, the famous rapper Apollo in his song “The main thing is not to fall down,” says: “I don’t need blunt, alcohol ...” - well, and so on. This statement by the artist is certainly laudable, although doubtful, if we take into account all his work, in particular, the text of this song, which is more extensively quoted in the article, is not possible for ethical reasons.
Blunt drink
Yes, connoisseurs of spirits also found an opportunity to glorify Blunt, at least in the name of a new alcoholic creation. So, one of the Internet users posted on the Internet a recipe for a “relative” of the well-known cocktail “Screwdriver”, called the “Blunt Screwdriver”. Those who wish can use it by mixing ginger ale and orange juice (120 ml each) in equal parts, adding ice and garnishing with a slice of orange and red cocktail cherry.
How to collapse a blunt: step-by-step instruction
The question of how to make a blunt, of course, interests everyone who wants to "join the steepness." The ability to independently fold a blunt is an indispensable item in the "repertoire" of this herbaceous. This business requires certain skills.
First of all, you need to buy any cigar, make sure that the tobacco leaf is soft and unsaturated.
A standard blunt holds 1 g of grass, which should be chopped into small pieces with a blade.
Next, you need to open the cigar with a cigar knife. Previously, you should draw your tongue along the cut line - paper moistened with saliva will cut better.
Finely chopped grass should be placed on the cigar shell held between the fingers of one hand. You need to make sure that the potion is poured evenly along the entire length of the future blunt.
Next, you should carefully begin folding: holding the shell with both hands and gently pressing, turn the lower part under the upper one, being careful not to spill the grass.
Moving along the blunt, you need to lightly touch the wrapped part of the shell with a slightly damp tongue - “seal” it.
The whole twisted blunt should also be “sealed” - but slightly so as not to overdo it and not soak it; self-roll will fall apart from this.
Then the product should be dried. You can bake it in the oven with honey, you can just leave it in the air to dry itself, or you can use a lighter - but here you need to make sure that the joint does not burn out.
Everything, the blunt is ready! It is hoped that he will give the smoker new pleasant sensations.
