Advantages: Get a longer smoke out of them, save hassle in certain situations

Disadvantages: Smoking is not at all good for you

Rizla, the essential ingredient to the roll-up (aside from the tobacco of course but you're not daft are you?).

There's a couple of different ones to choose from but they're basically all the same thing - a piece of paper with gum on one edge that you can wrap your tobacco up in. You've got the choice or green (corner cut - so you know which bit has the gum on and medium weight - come in regular or king-size), blue (not corner cut, very light weight - you can see the tobacco through them - come in regular or king-size) and red - come in regular or king-size and here's the subject of my opinion.

King-size reds:
---------------

There's not many people nowadays that doubt the reasoning behind the development of the king-size rolling paper, the proliferation of cannabis as lead to this and all well and good as it takes away the unnecessary palaver of sticking 2 regular papers together.

That aside, the Rizla reason for making the papers "Joint sized" is that you'll get a longer, more satisfying smoke. Call them the superkings of roll-ups if you like.

All in all it is true. I have, on occasion, used these papers. I used to be a pro-green paper type but, for some reason, they stopped sticking altogether! Weird I know but there it is. The reds have been nothing but great in this respect, corner cut papers don't make a jot of difference to the way the cigarette smokes once rolled and not a lot of difference in the actual process of rolling. Moving from one to the other was a very easy transition to make.

With these being a medium weight paper you get a slight paper taste to the fag, this is very reminiscent of smoking a ready-made fag as you can always taste the paper there. I find the taste of tobacco in its truest form horrible and so shy away from the blue papers. Reds are perfect for the job.

Overall:
--------

These papers are the perfect s
ize for the, well, dodgier fags and work well for making a "Superking" roll-up. I will not be changing brands in quite a while and keep a pack of these at home for times of need.

That's the lot for today.
