2. Zig Zag Ultra Thin Unflavored Rolling Papers
No products found.
Here we have another large carton of Zig Zag rolling papers, these ones, unlike the ones we just looked at above are designed to be extra thin. Now, they do burn much faster due to being so thin, which is something you might not like.
However, on the other hand, because they are so thin, you are smoking less paper, and that is of course much healthier. Just beware that they can be a bit fragile, so make sure there are no stems in the mix before rolling, because they will poke through.
What we can say about these things is that they do burn evenly, although a bit fast. Here you get 24 packs of papers, each with 32 papers per pack, so once again, it’s a long term investment. These papers are also 1.25 times the size of normal papers, so they are made for larger joints.

These papers are 1.25 the size of normal papers, which is what many people want nowadays, as normal sized papers are actually quite small. Keep in mind, these Zig Zags do burn evenly and at a moderate pace.
They aren’t slow burning, they aren’t extra thin, or unbleached either. They are basic and normal rolling papers, and yeah, they do work really well. As the saying goes “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”.

Here we have what is really the original Zig Zag, the normal size, not 1.25 the size of others. These are the smaller ones, which are therefore ideal for normal size or smaller joints. These are also perfectly normal Zig Zag rolling papers with nothing special about them.
They are bleached yes, but made with natural gumming, and they do stick well, so that is a bonus. These are not extra thin or thick, and they burn at a moderate pace.
This is what many people start out with and they work perfectly fine.

Last update on 2024-04-16 / Affiliate links / Images from Amazon Product Advertising API
Alright, so now we are moving on from the Zig Zag brand name to Raw, which is another super popular brand name for rolling papers for weed. One of the reason why people love Raw papers, such as these exact ones, is because they are all natural.
They are made out of natural plant fibers, the glue is natural gum, the are unbleached, and 100% vegan too. So, in other words, as far as rolling papers for smoking go, these are about as healthy as possible, as everything about them is natural.
Something that does need to be said however is that these are designed to be extra thin, which is good because you smoke as little as possible, but on the other hand, they do burn somewhat fast and unevenly, so keep that in mind.
Here you get 160 papers and yes, they are quite large, for big joints (they are much longer than normal papers, but also much slimmer).
6. Raw Unrefined Classic Rolling Papers
- 6 packs - 50 Leaves per pack = 300 Leaves
- Natural gum
- Translucent Ultra Thin rolling paper
- All natural, additive-free, 100% vegan
- Size: 75mm x 44mm, made in Spain
Last update on 2024-04-16 / Affiliate links / Images from Amazon Product Advertising API
Here we have very similar papers to the ones we just looked at, also from the RAW brand name. Once again, these Raw rolling papers are 100% vegan, made with natural gumming, they feature natural plant fibers, and are unbleached. Yes, they are about as natural as can be when it comes to something to roll your marijuana in.
Just like the other ones we just looked at, these are also super thin, so you smoke as little of them as possible, which is healthy. However, just like the other Raw papers, they don’t always burn that well and if not rolled very well, your joints may go out on occasion.
The big difference between these ones and the previous ones is that these, instead of being long and narrow, are shorter and wider, which thus creates a bit of a different joint, more of a fatty.

Yes, some more rolling papers for pot from the Raw brand name. Now, these are not so much rolling papers as they are pre-rolled papers that you just pour weed into. Yeah, they do make life a lot easier for people who don’t have the time or skill to roll themselves.
Simply take a pre-rolled Raw cone, pour weed into it, pack it down nicely, and you are good to go. These things even come complete with a natural filter inserted into them for convenience. Other than that, they are totally normal Raw papers.
They’re vegan, unbleached, and all natural, and yeah, they are quite thin, so they burn at a decent pace, and sometimes maybe a bit unevenly. These tubes can be hard to pack right if you haven’t done it before.
8. Juicy Jay’s Assorted Rolling Papers
- Mix Assortment
- Item Package Length: 1.778cm
- Item Package Width: 8.89cm
- Item Package Height: 9.652cm
Last update on 2024-04-16 / Affiliate links / Images from Amazon Product Advertising API
Here we have one of the popular assorted packs of rolling papers courtesy of the Juicy Jay’s brand name. Now, what you need to know here is that these are flavored rolling papers, so they do add a nice flavor to the equation.
Some people like flavored papers and some don’t. It’s all personal preference. The flavors include Green Trip, Absinth, Watermelon, Banana, Raspberry, Green Apple, Strawberry Kiwi, Blueberry, Very Cherry, and Grape.
So, here you get 10 packs of flavored papers, each with 32 papers, for a total of 320 papers. These are usually very easy to roll, they stick well, they burn at a moderate pace, and usually burn quite evenly too. The only thing to keep in mind is that they are far from natural and definitely aren’t the healthiest option around.
9. Juicy Jay’s Flavored Rolling Papers
- Model Number: 24 Variety pack Juicy Jay's, FBA
- This pack contains 24 assorted juicy flavors in the regular 1 1/4' Size
- This 24 pack contains over 700 rolling papers!

Last update on 2024-04-16 / Affiliate links / Images from Amazon Product Advertising API
Here we have another option from Juicy Jay’s, and here instead of 10 packs of 32 paper, you get 24 packs of 32 papers. Once again, these all have flavors added to them, so they will alter the flavor of the weed you are smoking.
So, no, they are not natural, they have been bleached, and they could definitely be healthier, but they do add a nice flavor as far as we are concerned. As for the specific flavors, you will find out once you get them.
There are 31 possible flavors which Juicy Jay’s come in, and this is a completely random assortment, so yeah, what flavors you get are a bit of a surprise. Just like the other Juicy Jay’s we looked at, these things are easy to roll, they stick well, and they burn quite nicely too.
Keep in mind that these are 1.25 size papers, so a bit bigger than your average rolling papers for weed.
10. Elements King Size Slim Ultra Thin Rice Rolling Paper
- Elements King Size Ultra Slims
- Full Box of 50 packs - 33 Leaves per pack = 1650 Leaves
- Sugar Gum, Ultra Thin Rice Paper
- Size: 110mm x 44mm, Made in Spain
Last update on 2024-04-16 / Affiliate links / Images from Amazon Product Advertising API
Here we have an honorable mention, from Elements, another fairly popular brand name. As you can probably tell by the name, Elements King Size Slim Ultra Thin Rice Rolling Paper, these are actually made out of rice. They are not bleached or flavored, and they are known for being some of the healthier rolling papers around.
Here you get 50 packs of rolling papers with 33 papers per pack, so they should last you for quite some time to come. What is nice about these things is that they don’t produce much ash and they don’t have a flavor.
Now, on the other hand, they are ultra thin, which some people like, but beware that they are fragile and they may not burn very evenly, although a quality of rice paper is that it burns fairly slowly.
Types Of Rolling Papers For Weed: Size, Flavoring, & Materials
Alright, so there are some things you need to know before you buy rolling papers, mainly in terms of what they are made of, their size, and flavoring too.
Material
So, generally speaking, rolling papers for weed are going to be made of one of three materials, which include normal paper pulp, hemp fibers, or rice paper, and each has slightly different properties. Rice paper tends to be really thin and quite healthy, usually not bleached, and they burn quite slowly with minimal ash, but they can be a bit fragile.
Then you have your hemp rolling papers, which are also usually quite thin, they are even healthier than rice papers, they tend to be a bit easier to roll than rice paper, but they usually also burn quite quickly.
Finally, you have your normal pulp rolling papers, which are usually bleached and much unhealthier than either of the others, but that said, they usually do burn the best.
Flavoring & Bleaching
Something else you want to look for is bleaching. Usually only normal pulp papers will be bleached, so they are white, which is a purely aesthetic thing and adds nothing to the way they burn.
This is not healthy and if possible, should be avoided. Now, in terms of flavoring, yes, some people do like the flavor of blueberry or whatever else in their joints, but just beware that these flavors are not natural and definitely not very healthy either.
Size & Thickness
The other thing to keep in mind when buying rolling papers for weed is how large and thick they are. Now, the size is up to you and it totally depends on how big of a joint you want to smoke, but do remember that very large papers, especially the long ones, can be harder to roll.
In terms of thickness, thicker papers tend to be sturdier, so they are a bit easier to roll with, and they burn decently too.
The really thin papers are appealing because there is less being smoked (other than weed), and they tend to have less of a flavor effect, but on the other hand, they also tend to be fragile, harder to roll with, and sometimes they don’t burn all that well.

The size, flavor, material, and all that can make a difference in the way a joint smokes and how much you enjoy it. It might take a few tries for you to find the right ones, but there are so many types of rolling papers for marijuana that finding at least a few that suit you shouldn’t be too difficult.
