Complete your rolling setup with Mascotte Original King Size Inside-Out papers if you prefer backrolling — same quality, designed specifically for that technique. A set of reusable glass filter tips or a slim hand roller also pairs well if you want cleaner, more consistent rolls every time.
Most cheap rolling papers go through a chlorine or calcium carbonate bleaching process. That's what gives them that bright white look — and it's also what adds a faint papery, chemical taste to your smoke. Mascotte skips that step entirely with their Original King Size line. The result is a natural, light-brown paper that lets you actually taste your herb instead of the paper it's wrapped in.
The weight of the paper matters more than most people think. Rolling paper thickness directly affects how evenly and how quickly your joint burns. Go too thick and you're smoking more paper than herb; go too thin and you'll get runs, canoeing, and uneven burns that waste material. Mascotte's Original King Size papers sit in a sweet spot — lightweight enough to stay out of the way, but with enough body that they don't tear when you're rolling. We've handled a lot of papers over the years, and these feel sturdy between your fingers without any stiffness. They fold cleanly and tuck without fighting you.
The slow, even burn is the real selling point. Nobody wants to relight halfway through or watch one side race ahead of the other. These papers burn at a consistent pace from tip to roach, which means longer sessions and less wasted herb. If you've been using standard bleached papers and wondering why your joints always canoe, switching to an unbleached option like these is the single easiest fix.
Mascotte packages these 34 leaves in a resealable booklet with a magnetic closure. Sounds minor, but if you've ever pulled a crumpled, bent paper out of a loose pack in your back pocket, you know the pain. The magnetic flap keeps the booklet shut and the papers flat, dry, and ready to use. It's slim enough to slide into a jacket pocket or tuck into a rolling tray without taking up space. The booklet itself has a clean, understated design — no garish branding, just the Mascotte logo and the "Original Dutch Quality" tagline. It looks good sitting on a table, and it doesn't scream anything when you pull it out.
One honest note: 34 leaves is a solid count for a single booklet, but if you're a daily roller, you'll go through these in a week or two. Worth grabbing a few booklets at once so you're not caught short.
Mascotte also makes an Original King Size Inside-Out variant, designed specifically for backrolling. If you prefer that technique — rolling with the gum strip facing outward and tearing off the excess paper — the Inside-Out version is purpose-built for it. The standard Original King Size papers here work best for traditional front-rolling. Both use the same unbleached, lightweight paper stock, so the burn quality is identical. The choice comes down to your rolling style, nothing more.

| Paper | Unbleached, lightweight | Unbleached, lightweight |
| Burn | Slow, even | Slow, even |
| Gum Position | Standard (top edge, facing you) | Reversed for backrolling |

We've stocked Mascotte papers since the early days. They're a Dutch brand — been around for decades — and there's a reason they keep showing up in rolling trays across Amsterdam. The Original King Size papers don't try to be anything fancy. No watermarks, no novelty flavours, no gimmicks. Just well-made unbleached papers that burn the way they should. We'd pick these over most bleached king size options without thinking twice, purely because the flavour difference is noticeable from the first draw.
The one thing to watch: if you're used to thicker, stiffer papers, these will feel different in your hands. They're deliberately lightweight. That's a feature, not a flaw — but it does mean you need a slightly lighter touch when tucking. After two or three rolls, you won't even notice.
No. These are unbleached papers, which is why they have a natural light-brown colour rather than bright white. Unbleached papers avoid the chemical taste that chlorine-treated papers can introduce.
Each booklet contains 34 king size leaves. The booklet has a magnetic closure to keep them flat and protected.
Yes. The lightweight, unbleached paper is designed for a slow, even burn. You'll get a noticeably longer session compared to standard bleached papers that tend to burn faster and less evenly.
Absolutely. The paper is lightweight but not flimsy — it holds its shape well during rolling. If you're just starting out, pair them with a slim hand roller until your technique improves.
Same paper, different gum placement. The Inside-Out version positions the adhesive strip for backrolling, where you roll with the gum facing outward and tear off excess paper. These standard papers are for traditional front-rolling.
These are king size rolling papers. They give you enough width and length for a full-sized roll without needing to double up or use multiple papers.
It does. The magnet is strong enough to keep the booklet sealed in a pocket or bag. Papers stay flat and dry — no more bent or crumpled leaves from loose packs.
