Yeah, i know most people will say "Why are you smoking weed with tobbacco? Tobbacco is bad rah rah rah". But if your from the UK its more likely than not you put tobbacco in with your weed when rolling a spliff.

I personally only use rolling tobbacco, and my prefered brand is cutters choice.

I cant stand ciggerette tobbacco in spliffs, i find it burns way too fast and doesn't taste great.

What are your preferences?

I would actually say that rolling robacco takes away from the smell of the joint. For example if im smoking pollen i'll mix it with Lambert & Butler cigarette tobacco and it smells and tastes great. Of course if im smoking in a place where it's a little risky i'll use rolling tobacco as it seems to mask the smell of the pollen. Maybe it's just because I only use one type of rolling tobacco which is Drum.

Yeah i have noticed that when smoking pollen joints with rolling tobbacco in they do smell alot less polleny. Doesnt work so much/ if at all with green though.

Im not a fan of Drum, i find its too dry. I do however like the sticky bit for the rizlas and the velcro-like sealy bit.

When i was smoking cigs i smoked Bennie Hedges, and used cutters choice for rolling.

I quit it all tho now, i just roll pure.

I dont know many people who use cutters choice.

I have rolled a joint with tobacco/ganja...It was so harsh.... I'm not knocking on others who do it.."To each his own" But damn, man..you gotta have lungs of iron to heck that kinda smoke!!!! I love the smell of a straight ganja joint...But if I was in an unsafe toking area...and I had to toke...I'd roll some American Spirit with some refer...those aren't half bad!!!

Its not as if i put a fuck load of tobacco in my spliffs, just a little sprinkle on the top and bottom just to aid slower and more even burning. Its just how ive always smoked joints.

in the states its hard to find good unrolled tobacco. there i smoke bali shag medium. it has a woodsy sort of smell, burns slow, and doesnt have all those cut stems in it.

Cutters because my bird smokes it, used to use GV.

My entire family in London smokes Bensons, and I used to smoke Marlboro Reds and Camel, but i hardly smoke straights now..

95% of the time straight ganja. But when I do add I gotta add that ^^^

I don't like to add tobacco when I roll a joint, mainly because I don't like having tobacco smoke in my lungs, but I do occasionally partake in my pipe, from which I like to smoke Neptune, Amphora Full Aroma, Long Golden Flake by Reiner, but my favorite has got to be Westminster, by GLPease. Maybe I'll start a thread somewhere else about pipe tobacco, and the often interesting individuals that partake in it. {That last part was a joke - I like to act stuck up occasionally when smoking or discussing my pipe, Hah}

G.V, but would buy Cutters Choice or Drum Light if I had to.

Normal ciggarette tobacco even though I don't smoke. I was reading one time about some herbal tobacco? It doesn't have the addictiveness of the normal cig tobacco but I heard it tastes pretty awful.

it dries out fairly fast, i wouldnt say thats a bad thing though.
It gets to a certain level of moisture where its easy to roll with, but not so dry that its harsh.

Besides, it costs £2.50 for 12 grams, and some top5 papers ( best for sticking )

You can get 5 strips of roach from the whole thing ( perforated, btw )

Sometimes i find that with GV, etc, it needs to dry out a bit before my joints become perfection :)

It just seems easier. 2.50 a week, use for cigs and joints.

AMERICAN SPIRIT
hav tried nat sherman, peter stokes, mclintok, ect
since ive started to roll my own, i smoke less cigs of better quality tobacco
most all prerolled cigs suck and are about only 40% real tobbaco, 40% reconstituted sheet tobacco(powdered tobacco swept off ground), and the rest chemicals and additives
THAT SUX
I LIKE TO SMOKE NATURAL TOBACCO

i dont see why anyone would smoke premade mass production cigs. they smell like burning taint hair and leave a nasty ass aftertaste in your mouth that doesnt go away for a day.

yeah, GV is deffo a bit wet. I HATE top5 papers for joints though, fine for cigarettes, but it's gotta be smoother for a J...

ill mix my weed with tobacco when im at like family reunions where all the adults smoke but there are some younger kids there, so we dont corrupt them to early. ill used midnight special rolling tobacco, its smooth and they give you 2 packs papers with 115 papers in each pack.

I know what you mean about the harshness, i rarely get that with top5. Maybe its the mix youve got? I find it a bit harsher when the baccy is fresh. Noone can say they dont stick though, haha
