Rolling papers

Vibes Hemp Rolling Papers King Size Slim is a natural hemp rolling paper that delivers a slow, even burn without bleach, additives, or chemical accelerants. Made from 100% unbleached hemp fibre, each paper measures approximately 110 × 44 mm and weighs roughly 13 g/m² — thin enough for a clean smoke, sturdy enough to forgive an imperfect tuck. Each booklet packs 33 leaves, giving daily rollers about a month of sessions or weekend-only smokers upwards of eight weeks of use. If you want to buy rolling papers that stay out of the way of your herb's terpene profile, these are the ones to reach for.
Vibes is the rolling paper brand co-founded by Berner — the San Francisco rapper and cannabis entrepreneur behind Cookies. The line launched in 2017 specifically to fill a gap he saw in the market: papers that actually respected the flower instead of masking it. The hemp version sits alongside their rice and ultra-thin lines, but it's the one we'd reach for when flavour matters most. The slightly thicker hemp fibre gives you a paper that's forgiving to roll with yet still burns clean. According to Vibes, over 50 million booklets have been sold worldwide since launch — a sign that the demand for natural, additive-free papers is more than a niche trend.
Hemp rolling papers eliminate the chemical additives — chlorine, calcium carbonate, potassium nitrate — that standard bleached papers rely on for burn control and white colour. The natural hemp fibre provides its own structural integrity and burns at a consistent, slow pace without accelerants. A 2019 study published by the EMCDDA noted that combustion byproducts vary significantly with paper composition, reinforcing why material choice matters for anyone inhaling through a rolled product. You taste the herb, not the paper — and that's the whole point.
The texture is where you notice the difference first. Pick up a Vibes hemp paper and it feels slightly rougher between your fingers than rice paper, with a visible grain running through the fibre. That texture actually works in your favour: it grips your herb mix better during the tuck, making it easier to get a tight, even roll. Rice papers are thinner and nearly transparent, which looks impressive, but they can be unforgiving if your technique isn't dialled in. Hemp is the best rolling paper type for anyone who wants a clean smoke without fighting the paper itself.
One honest limitation: hemp papers aren't the thinnest option Vibes makes. Their ultra-thin line wins on sheer translucency at roughly 10 g/m² versus hemp's approximately 13 g/m². But thinner doesn't always mean better — ultra-thins can canoe on you if the humidity is off or your roll is slightly uneven. The hemp version is more tolerant of real-world conditions, which is why we'd recommend it as the everyday workhorse.

Compared to RAW Classic King Size Slim — probably the most popular natural paper on the market — Vibes hemp papers feel slightly sturdier and have a marginally slower burn. RAW uses a blend of unbleached fibres with a natural gum line; Vibes goes pure hemp. Both are solid choices, but if you're after maximum flavour transparency, the Vibes hemp edges it. Elements Rice papers are the thinnest of the three at roughly 10 g/m², but they demand more precise technique. For most rollers, hemp strikes the ideal balance between ease and clean flavour.
Rolling with hemp papers takes about 60–90 seconds once you've done it a few times, and the textured fibre makes the tuck noticeably easier than with ultra-thin alternatives. Follow these steps for a consistent result every time.
We've stocked rolling papers at Azarius since 1999 — over 25 years now — and the shift towards natural hemp papers over the last decade has been massive. Around 60% of the rolling papers we sell today are unbleached, up from roughly 15% a decade ago. Customers who switch from standard bleached papers almost never go back — the taste difference is that obvious. The most common feedback on Vibes hemp specifically is that the slow burn rate means you're not constantly relighting, which matters when you're passing a joint around.
One thing to watch: store these somewhere dry. Hemp fibre absorbs ambient moisture more readily than rice paper, and if they get damp, the gum strip can stick to the paper below it in the booklet. Keep the booklet sealed or toss it in a zip pouch with your stash. A small rolling tray keeps papers, herbs, and tips together and off damp surfaces. Not a dealbreaker — just something worth knowing before you leave a booklet on a windowsill in November.
If you order Vibes hemp papers and find you want an even thinner smoke, try Vibes Rice King Size Slim next time — same brand philosophy, different feel. And if you're looking to buy a complete session kit, pair these papers with a rolling tray and a quality herb grinder for the smoothest workflow.
Complete your setup with a proper grinder — a 4-piece metal herb grinder gives you the consistent medium grind that these king size slims deserve. And if you want to keep your papers and herbs together, a rolling tray stops you losing half your mix to the sofa cushions.
No — hemp papers are actually easier to roll than ultra-thin or rice papers. The natural fibre texture grips the herb better during the tuck, so you get a tighter roll with less effort. If you can roll with any standard paper, you'll have zero issues with Vibes hemp.
They add virtually no flavour of their own. That's the main advantage over bleached or flavoured papers — you taste the terpene profile of your herbs, not the paper. The neutral flavour is one of the top reasons people switch to hemp.
Each Vibes hemp booklet contains 33 king size slim papers. At one joint per paper, that's 33 joints. Daily rollers will get through a booklet in about a month; lighter users can stretch it to two months or more.
Hemp papers are slightly thicker (approximately 13 g/m² vs 10 g/m²), burn slower, and have a grippier texture that's forgiving to roll with. Rice papers are thinner and nearly transparent, producing an even lighter smoke but requiring more precise rolling technique. Hemp is the better everyday choice; rice is for when presentation matters.
Yes. They contain no chlorine, calcium carbonate, or chemical whiteners. The natural brown colour comes from the raw hemp fibre itself. No additives, no dyes — just hemp and natural Arabic gum.
Keep them in a cool, dry place — a sealed pouch or tin works well. Hemp fibre absorbs moisture from the air, which can make the gum strip sticky and cause papers to clump together. Avoid leaving them in humid environments or direct sunlight.
