What is a backwoods blunt?

Blunt backwoods, also known as blunt wrap or simply blunt, are originally a natural tobacco leaf used to roll and smoke cannabis.

Unlike the Blunt Wrap brand, for example, which distributes blunts made from tobacco processed into a «beautiful» blunt leaf, the backwood blunt leaf (named after the brand that distributes them) is not modified, but can be flavored. If you have in your hands a pure, just-harvested tobacco leaf, then you're dealing with a "blunt". fronto leaf.

Backwood blunts are among the most expensive leaf blunts on the market. Mac Dre even smoked them «because they're the most expensive». American rappers have played a big part in the popularity of backwoods blunts. The Gama, Waka Flocka Flame, Fetty Wap, Busta Rhymes and Future all prefer this type of blunts to conventional seals.

Backwood rolling blunt does require some skill. The sheet tears easily, and gluing is not so easy (don't get the sheet too wet, and let it dry afterwards). Once you've overcome these challenges, the experience can be quite different from what you're used to. First of all, backwood blunt burns very slowly. Some people even add a normal slim sheet around the blunt to speed up combustion.

Tobacco leaf is also highly concentrated in nicotine. As after a cigar, some people may experience stomach aches or dizziness. Avoiding heavy smoking seems the best thing to do in such cases.

Backwood's main competitors are Swisher and Dutch Masters. However, Backwood stands out for its original fragrances and higher prices.

On that note, we leave you with Mac Dre 😉
