Buy G-Rollz in the UK

Licensed artwork, and the code that proves it

The Banksy, Cheech and Chong and Pets Rock designs are licensed from source, and a QR code on the booklet lets you check the pack is genuine.

Most rolling paper design in this category is riffing. A pack that looks a bit like a famous artwork, a character who resembles someone you recognise, a font borrowed from a film poster. It is easy to do and it is everywhere.

G-Rollz took the harder route and licensed the real thing. According to independent write-ups of the brand, the collaborations are official: genuine Banksy artwork, a real Cheech and Chong partnership, and the Pets Rock and Dunkees ranges licensed from source rather than imitated. Our Pets Rock cones and Cheech and Chong blunt cones are both from that licensed programme.

The consequence is the interesting part. A brand built on licensed art is a brand worth counterfeiting, and G-Rollz responded by putting a QR authenticity code on the booklets so a buyer can verify the pack rather than trust the shelf. That is a genuinely useful consumer protection and, of the eight pages ranking for this brand in the UK, exactly one mentions it in passing.

Pick a flavour, then pick a format

The cones and the wraps share one flavour menu, and the Cheech and Chong line runs a separate one.

Here is a small, practical thing about this range that makes it much easier to shop, and which no page currently selling it has published.

The pre-rolled hemp cones and the hemp wraps draw on the same flavour set. The cones run nine: Blueberry Bop, Flavor Fiesta, Green Funk, Honey Buzz, Orange Dream, Passion Haze, Russian Cream, Strawberry Pop and Tropical Twist. The wraps carry seven of those at the moment, everything except Orange Dream and Russian Cream. So if you already know which one you like, you can usually move between a cone and a wrap without starting the flavour hunt again.

The Cheech and Chong blunt cones run their own separate set of eight: Blackberry OGK, Blueberry Kookies, Dutch Blend, Green Punch, Natural OGK, Strawberry Cheesecake, Tropical Pulp and Watermelon Sunrise. Those do not overlap with the nine above, so read that line as a different menu rather than an extension of the same one.

A word on the Cheech and Chong line specifically, because the name invites a misunderstanding. Terpene infused means flavour. Terpenes are the aromatic compounds that give plants their smell, and infusing them into a wrap changes how it tastes. It does not add cannabidiol or any other cannabinoid, and nothing in this brand does. If the word terpene made you think otherwise, that is worth knowing before you order.

What the papers are actually made of

French-milled papers from Spanish organic hemp with bamboo in the blend, acacia gum, and corn husk filters.

The material story here is more specific than most of the aisle, which usually stops at the word organic and moves on.

Independent accounts of the brand describe papers milled in France, which is where a large share of the world's rolling paper has been made for a very long time, using hemp organically grown in Spain. The fibre blend includes bamboo alongside hemp, the gumline is vegan acacia sap rather than a synthetic adhesive, and the materials are described as non-GMO.

The filters are the other distinguishing detail. The cones and wraps use corn husk filters rather than the rolled card tip you get with most papers. That is a different material doing the same structural job of stopping the end collapsing.

The brand's grinders are worth a mention even though neither of our distributors has them in stock at the moment. Both the two-piece and three-piece are made from a hemp-based material rather than aluminium or acrylic, so the tool is itself a hemp product rather than simply a tool for one.

How G-Rollz compares with the other paper brands we stock

The cone and wrap brand in an aisle where RAW owns loose papers, King Palm the other cones, and Juicy Jay's the wraps.

Our rolling paper aisle spans eleven brands, and G-Rollz is the one that covers both cones and wraps.

Against RAW the split is clean. RAW is papers and hardware and makes no cones or wraps at all. G-Rollz is cones and wraps. If you roll from scratch, RAW is the reference. If you would rather not, G-Rollz covers ground RAW does not touch.

Against King Palm it is closer, since both lead on pre-rolled cones. King Palm runs flavoured and natural hemp cones in medium and king size. G-Rollz brings more flavours, the licensed artwork and the wrap format on top.

Against Juicy Jay's, the wrap specialist, G-Rollz is the one with the wider format range and Juicy Jay's is the one that has been doing flavoured wraps longest. Monkey King spans papers, tips and cones and is the closest thing in the aisle to a single-brand answer.

So the honest summary: G-Rollz is the best choice in this aisle if you want a cone or a wrap and you care what the pack looks like. It is not the choice if you want loose papers, where its one paper line is out of stock and RAW carries three editions.

Where G-Rollz is strong, and where it is not

Strong on cones, wraps, licensing and material detail; weak on papers, hardware and a brand you cannot verify first-hand.

Cones and wraps from one brand with a flavour system that carries across both is coverage nothing else in the aisle matches. Paying for real Banksy and a real Cheech and Chong partnership is a decision with a bill attached, and shipping a way to verify the pack is a reasonable response to being worth faking. And the material detail, French mills, Spanish organic hemp, bamboo in the blend, acacia gum, corn husk filters, is more specific than most of this category manages.

Against that: the one loose-paper line and the hemp grinders are out of stock with both of our distributors, so if papers rather than cones are what you want, RAW is the deeper shelf. The brand is hard to verify directly because its own website is not currently serving, so everything above is third-party sourced. And two further cone lines from our second distributor are out of stock as well, which leaves the shelf smaller than the brand's range.

Buying G-Rollz in the UK

Stocked by most established UK headshops; what is missing everywhere is the licensing, the code, the shared flavours and the meaning of terpene infused.

G-Rollz is stocked by most of the established UK headshops, so availability is not the problem. Information is.

Every page we examined either publishes under two hundred words of filter furniture or spends its length telling you the filters give a cleaner smoke. Nobody explains the licensing, nobody mentions the authenticity code, nobody notes that the cones and wraps share a flavour set, and nobody points out that terpene infused means flavour rather than cannabinoid.

We have done all four, said plainly where our facts come from given the brand site is down, and declined to make the claim everyone else leads with. We also stock ten other brands in this aisle, so when a paper or a wrap from someone else suits you better, we will say so.

Everything on this page is 18+ only.
