Are Zig-Zags easy to roll?

Zig-Zags are a timeless French rolling paper brand that has been in the paper business for over 140 years, so they know a great rolling paper when they see one. You won’t go wrong with any Zig-Zags paper from their long list of products, but some are preferred for joints, while others are better for cigarettes. In general, thicker rolling papers are easier to roll and the best choice if you’re just starting your joint rolling journey. French Orange Zig-Zags, often referred to simply as the “orange pack” are some of the easiest rolling papers to use. Start out with these before graduating to thinner, harder to roll papers such as the Zig-Zags Ultra Thin pack. You can also opt for a rolling machine until you get comfortable creating joints on your own. Even if you’re an expert roller, these handy machines are a great investment if you like to have pre-rolls ready to smoke at all times or need to roll more than three or four joints at a time.

If you want to roll right this minute, using Zig-Zag cones is even easier than rolling joints and requires no practice! Zig-Zag cones are rolling papers that come pre-rolled into a cone shape so all you need to do is grind up your favorite strain and fill up the cone. Zig-Zag cones are available in 1 ¼ size and King Size depending on your smoking preference. 1 ¼ size are the standard for solo smoking sessions or if you like to pre-roll a bunch of joints to keep them on hand, while the longer King Size cones are good for sharing or lengthier sessions. Both sizes come with a pre-installed crutch and are ready to pack right out of the box. Simply use a small funnel or your fingers to pinch in the ground dry herb. Remember to give it a little tamp half way through for even burning and pinch or twist the end closed so the flower doesn’t fall out.
