Rolling papers
by Smoking
Smoking DeLuxe King Size Rolling Papers are ultra-thin king size skins made by Miquel y Costas — the Barcelona-based paper manufacturer that's been at it since 1879. At just 13 g/m², these are some of the thinnest papers you'll find anywhere, which means less paper taste and more of whatever you've rolled inside. If you've ever wondered why half of Europe reaches for the black and gold packet, this is why.
The Smoking DeLuxe line sits at the top of the Smoking brand's range, and you can feel it the moment you pull one from the booklet. The paper is almost translucent — hold it up to a light and you'll see through it. That 13 g/m² weight is noticeably thinner than standard papers, which typically sit around 20–25 g/m². Less material burning means a cleaner taste and a slower, more even burn. The natural vegetable gum strip sticks on the first lick without needing to drown it, and it holds firm once sealed.
We've been stocking Smoking papers since the early days of the shop, and the DeLuxe has always been the one we point people towards when they ask for a reliable all-rounder. They're not the cheapest king size on the shelf — RAW Classic King Size Slims are a touch less — but the DeLuxe burns noticeably slower. That said, they're slightly wider than slim-format papers at 44 mm, so if you prefer a pencil-thin roll, the Smoking DeLuxe King Size Slim might suit you better. For a standard king size cone or a generous straight roll, though, these are the ones.
Every detail you need before you buy — no guesswork, just numbers.

Rolling with DeLuxe papers but no tips? Grab a pack of Smoking DeLuxe King Size and Tips for the complete setup — same paper, with pre-cut filter tips included. If you prefer a slimmer format, the Smoking Brown King Size Slim papers use unbleached stock at a similar weight for an even more natural smoke.
Here's the thing about rolling papers — most people pick one brand early on and never switch. That's fine if you started with something decent, but if you've been using thick, fast-burning papers, you're missing out on what a proper thin paper does for the experience. A 13 g/m² paper like the DeLuxe burns at roughly half the rate of a standard 25 g/m² paper. That's not marketing fluff — it's physics. Less material, less fuel, slower combustion.
The practical upshot: your roll lasts longer, the flavour stays cleaner, and you're not constantly relighting. We've had customers come back after switching from a budget paper to the DeLuxe and say they thought they'd changed their blend. They hadn't — they'd just stopped tasting burning paper.
One honest limitation: because the paper is so thin, it's less forgiving if your rolling technique is rough. If you tend to handle papers with damp fingers or you're still learning to roll, you might tear through a few before you get the hang of it. That's not a flaw — it's the trade-off for ultra-thin stock. Once you've got the touch, it's second nature. Start with dry hands and a flat surface, and you'll be fine.
We've stocked rolling papers since 1999, and the Smoking DeLuxe has been on the shelf for nearly all of that time. It outsells most other king size papers in our shop, and the reason is boringly simple — it works. The gum doesn't unstick halfway through, the paper doesn't canoe (burn unevenly down one side), and the thinness means you taste your blend, not the wrapper.
If you're comparing to RAW Classic King Size Slims — the other big seller — the main difference is width and texture. RAW Slims are 44 mm wide as well but have a rougher, unbleached texture that some people prefer for grip. The DeLuxe is smoother, almost silky between the fingers. Both burn slowly; the DeLuxe edges it on thinness. Honestly, you can't go wrong with either, but if clean taste is your priority, the DeLuxe wins by a hair.
At 13 g/m², they're roughly half the weight of standard rolling papers, which typically sit between 20–25 g/m². You can see through them when held up to light. Thinner paper means slower burn and less paper taste in every puff.
Each booklet contains 33 papers. That's standard for king size booklets from Smoking. The black and gold packaging keeps them flat and protected in your pocket.
No, this booklet is papers only — 33 sheets, no tips. If you want tips included, look for the Smoking DeLuxe King Size and Tips pack, which bundles both in one booklet.
They're thinner than most papers, so they can tear if you handle them roughly or with damp fingers. Once you're used to the weight, they actually roll more smoothly than thicker papers because they conform to shape easily. Dry hands make all the difference.
Each sheet measures 108 x 44 mm. That's full king size width — slightly wider than king size slim format. Fits a standard 0.75–1 g roll comfortably with room for a filter tip at one end.
Yes — the even burn is one of the best things about the DeLuxe line. The 13 g/m² paper combined with natural vegetable gum produces a consistent, slow burn with minimal canoeing. Roll evenly and you'll get a straight burn line every time.
The DeLuxe uses ultra-thin white paper at 13 g/m² with a smooth finish. Smoking Brown papers are unbleached and have a slightly rougher texture. Both burn slowly, but the DeLuxe is thinner and smoother. Brown appeals more to people who prefer unprocessed paper.
