Which cones on this shelf come with a filter tip already fitted?

All of them, in four different forms. Monkey King uses a pre-inserted card filter, the G-Rollz two-cone hemp packs use a spiral filter, King Palm's cones arrive with a fitted tip, and Mr Tipp's blunt tubes have a 12mm glass tip built in. The G-Rollz Ape cones ship with a shaped paper shield instead, which protects the cone and then flips over to act as a funnel while you fill it.

Do the four brands here use the same size cone?

Not quite. Both G-Rollz lines, Monkey King and King Palm Natural are king size, at roughly 110mm and around 1.15g of capacity. King Palm's Banana Foster, Grape Swish and Lil Lemon are the medium one and a quarter size, roughly 83mm and around 0.75g. Mr Tipp's blunt tubes sit outside the two classes as a pre-rolled tube rather than a cone.

Where are the cones on this shelf actually made?

The G-Rollz Ape cones are made in France from finely pressed organic hemp fibre. The G-Rollz two-cone hemp packs use organic Spanish hemp. Monkey King is a Barcelona brand. The Cheech and Chong blunt cones use USA-grown CBD hemp. It is a genuinely European shelf, which is unusual in a category dominated by imports.

Do pre-rolled cones dry out or go stale?

The paper itself does not spoil, but it does get brittle if it is stored somewhere warm or left loose, and a brittle cone splits when you fill it. Flavoured cones are the ones that fade, since the aroma compounds are volatile. The glass tubes the Cheech and Chong cones come in are air-tight for exactly that reason, and they are the best-protected line here.

Which cone is easiest to fill?

The G-Rollz Ape cones, without much argument. The paper shield each one ships inside flips over and works as a funnel, which is a direct answer to the one thing that genuinely irritates people about this format. After that, any king size is easier than a medium simply because the opening is two or three millimetres wider.

Which cone should someone who has never rolled start with?

A king size with a card tip, so a Monkey King hemp cone or King Palm Natural. The wider opening is more forgiving to fill and a plain paper lets you judge how firmly you have packed it without a flavour confusing matters. Start with a three-cone pack rather than a counter box, since almost everything on this shelf is supplied in display quantities.

Are any of these cones made from CBD hemp?

The G-Rollz Cheech and Chong blunt cones are, according to the manufacturer, made from USA-grown CBD hemp and infused with terpenes. That describes the plant the paper fibre came from and the aroma compounds added to it. No cannabinoid figure is published for them, so they should not be bought as a CBD product, and nothing on this shelf should be.

Does a cone use more paper than one you roll yourself?

Generally yes, because a cone has to hold its shape unfilled and is built with that in mind, where a hand-rolled paper only has to hold together once packed. That extra paper is the trade for never having to roll anything. If burning as little paper as possible matters to you, king size slim flat papers are the better answer and they live in the parent aisle.

Pre-Rolled Cones UK

A pre-rolled cone is a rolling paper already formed into a cone with the filter tip fitted, so the only job left is filling it and twisting the end. Pre-rolled cones in the UK are sold almost entirely on size, in a shorthand of king size and one and a quarter, and here is the odd part: of the five pages ranking above this one, not a single one tells you what those words mean in millimetres or in grams. One of them organises its whole shop by size and never defines a single size anywhere in its copy. So this page starts with the numbers, then covers the part nobody writes about at all, which is what the tip and the gum line are actually made of.

The two sizes, in grams and millimetres

Cone sizes are consistent across manufacturers, which is what makes them worth learning once. There are two on this shelf and the gap between them is bigger than the names suggest.

One and a quarter is the medium size, roughly 83mm long including a tip of around 26mm, and around six to seven millimetres across at the open end. It holds in the region of three quarters of a gram of dry material. King Palm's Banana Foster, Grape Swish and Lil Lemon cones are all this size.

King size runs to roughly 110mm with the same 26mm tip, and it is wider as well as longer, at around eight to nine millimetres across. That combination is why it holds appreciably more, somewhere around one and one sixth grams. Both G-Rollz king size lines, the Monkey King cones and King Palm's Natural sit here.

The practical version: a king size takes roughly half as much again as a one and a quarter, not a little more. If you have been buying king size out of habit and finishing half of one, the medium size is the honest recommendation, and it is the one most people should be buying.

Figures vary by a millimetre or two between manufacturers and every filled cone packs differently, so read these as the size class rather than a specification. Our parent rolling papers aisle gives the equivalent numbers for flat papers if you also roll by hand.

Size	Length	Width at the open end	Holds roughly	On this shelf
One and a quarter, sometimes called medium	About 83mm including a 26mm tip	About 6mm to 7mm	Around 0.75g	King Palm Banana Foster, Grape Swish and Lil Lemon, three cones a pack
King size	About 110mm including a 26mm tip	About 8mm to 9mm	Around 1.15g	G-Rollz Ape and Cheech and Chong cones, Monkey King hemp cones, King Palm Natural

The two cone size classes on this shelf. Capacity is approximate and depends on how firmly a cone is packed.

Four brands, four completely different tips

This is the part of a cone that decides whether it is pleasant to use, and it is the part no UK page describes. All four brands here solve the same problem differently.

Monkey King fits a pre-inserted card filter, the conventional rolled-card tip, and its cones arrive with it already in place. Card gives structure and stops the end collapsing, and it is the option most people will already be familiar with.

G-Rollz uses a spiral filter in its two-cone hemp packs. A spiral is card wound into a coil rather than a flat roll, which leaves a longer air path and a slightly cooler draw than a simple rolled tip.

The G-Rollz Ape cones do something cleverer. Each cone ships inside a shaped paper shield that keeps it from being crushed, and the shield flips over to work as a funnel while you fill. It is a small idea that solves the one genuine annoyance of the format, which is spilling half of what you are loading down the side.

Mr Tipp's is the outlier: a 12mm glass tip built into a pre-rolled hemp tube. Glass does not absorb anything, so it does not carry flavour over between uses, and it stays cooler than card. It is also the only reusable tip on the shelf and the only one you can wash.

The gum line is worth a sentence too. Monkey King seals with natural Arabic gum and the G-Rollz Ape cones with acacia tree sap, which are closely related plant gums and are the reason both burn without the chemical note a synthetic adhesive can give.

Line	Cones per pack	Tip	Paper and origin
Monkey King Pre-Rolled Cones, Hemp	3, in a box of 18 packs, so 54 cones	Pre-inserted card filter	Hemp paper, natural Arabic gum, from the Barcelona brand
G-Rollz 2 Pre-Rolled Hemp Cones	2, in a display of 12 packs	Spiral filter	Organic Spanish hemp, with a QR code on the pack for authenticity
G-Rollz Pets Rock Ape Cones, king size	3, in a box of 24 packs	Shaped paper shield that flips into a filling funnel	Finely pressed organic hemp fibre, acacia tree sap gum line, made in France
G-Rollz Cheech and Chong Terpene-Infused Blunt Cones	2, in an air-tight glass tube, 12 tubes a display	Patented cone protector	USA-grown CBD hemp with added terpenes, tobacco free, eight flavours
King Palm Hemp Cones	3, in a box of 30 packs	Fitted tip	Hemp paper, in medium one and a quarter and king size
Mr Tipp's Pre-Rolled Hemp Blunt Tubes	2 tubes	12mm glass tip, reusable and washable	Natural hemp fibre

What the G-Rollz flavour names actually taste of

Green Funk is grape. Tropical Twist is mango. Flavor Fiesta is multifruit. Passion Haze is passion fruit.

Those are not our guesses. The manufacturer states the marketing name and the actual flavour separately in its own product information, and then every retailer in the country prints only the first one. If you have ever bought a cone called Green Funk expecting something herbal and got grape, that is why.

So here is the full mapping for both G-Rollz cone ranges we stock, which as far as we can tell is not published anywhere else in UK retail.

Name on the pack	What it actually is
Green Funk	Grape
Tropical Twist	Mango
Flavor Fiesta	Multifruit
Passion Haze	Passion fruit
Blueberry Bop	Blueberry
Orange Dream	Orange
Strawberry Pop	Strawberry, currently out of stock at both distributors
Honey Buzz	Honey, currently out of stock at both distributors
Russian Cream	Russian cream, the one name that says what it is

Blunt cones are not king size cones

Both appear on this shelf and they are different objects, which the pages ranking for this term sell side by side without ever saying so.

A king size cone is a rolling paper shaped into a cone. It is thin, it burns at the pace paper burns, and the material is hemp or wood pulp.

A blunt cone is heavier. The G-Rollz two-cone packs and the Cheech and Chong tubes are both blunt cones: thicker material, a wider bore, a slower burn and a much more assertive flavour, sitting somewhere between a cone and a wrap. If you have only used king size cones, the first blunt cone will feel like a considerable step up in both size and duration.

The Cheech and Chong line is the unusual one here. Its cones are made from USA-grown CBD hemp fibre and infused with terpenes, and they come two to an air-tight glass tube. Worth being precise about what that does and does not mean: CBD hemp describes the plant the paper fibre came from, and terpenes are aroma compounds. The manufacturer publishes no cannabinoid figure for these cones, so do not buy them expecting one. Our hemp and hash aisle is where cannabinoid content is actually stated.

Mr Tipp's blunt tubes are a third thing again, closer to a pre-rolled tube than a cone, with a glass tip at the end.

Choosing, honestly

Four questions settle it, and none of them is brand.

How much do you want to fill? A one and a quarter takes about three quarters of a gram, a king size about half as much again. Most people overbuy on size.

How much do you mind spilling? The G-Rollz Ape shield that doubles as a funnel is the easiest thing on the shelf to fill, and the difference is real rather than marketing.

Do you want to taste the paper or not? The flavoured G-Rollz and King Palm lines are assertive. Monkey King's hemp cones and King Palm Natural are the plain options if you would rather not.

Are you buying one or a box? Almost everything on this shelf is supplied to us as a counter display: 18 packs of Monkey King, 24 of the Ape cones, 30 of King Palm, 12 of the G-Rollz tubes. Read the pack count before ordering, since our parent aisle explains how those counts multiply out and they catch people out regularly.

Now the honest cautions. If you already roll well, cones use more paper than a hand-rolled equivalent and give you no control over the shape, so you may simply not want them. If you crush them in a bag they will not draw properly afterwards and cannot be rescued. If a specific flavour matters, check the mapping table above rather than the name on the front. And if you want a cannabinoid rather than an accessory, this is the wrong aisle entirely: none of these products contains a stated amount of anything, and the CBD oil and hemp and hash aisles are where that lives.

Everything here is tobacco free and nicotine free. Over-18s only, as with everything on this site.
