What actually matters when picking papers
1. Thickness
The big trend this year is thinner papers. Less paper means less paper taste and a slower burn, so your blend does the talking. Elements and RAW Black are the thinnest in our range. If you're still learning, a slightly thicker paper like RAW Classic is more forgiving.
2. Material
- Rice: ultra-thin and clean (Elements).
- Hemp / unbleached: natural, slightly more texture, great grip for beginners (RAW Classic and Organic).
- Coloured: design-led papers like Blazy Susan, made with food-safe dyes and vegan paper.
3. Size
1¼ is the classic UK size for smaller rolls. King size slim is the most popular size we sell: longer, slimmer and easier to roll neatly. Want it done for you? Go for pre-rolled cones.
4. Tips included?
Some booklets (Cloudz, some Vibes) come with tips inside. If yours don't, grab a book of roach tips or upgrade to a reusable glass tip.

King size or 1¼?
King size slim is longer and slimmer; 1¼ is shorter and wider. Most people find king size slim easier to roll neatly.
