Non-Infused Pre-rolls

Pre-rolls or joints have been around for a very long time because they offer simplicity and predictability. They are simply made from ground cannabis flower and rolling paper. This method provides a classic experience that many consumers know and love. The quality of the pre-roll depends on the type of ground flower used and the craftsmanship of the rolling process. This particular method typically ranges from 15% to 25% THC, delivering a more balanced experience that allows the consumer to appreciate the strain and its natural terpenes.

Infused Pre-rolls

Infused pre-rolls are just like your traditional pre-roll, but they pack a much bigger rip for your high due to the extra distillate inside. These are much like regular pre-rolls, but combine ground cannabis flower with various concentrates/distillates to create a more potent product and typically contain about 30% to 40% THC or higher. These enhanced joints incorporate materials like kief, hash, live resin, diamonds, or distillate. These enhancements can be applied to the pre-rolls' exterior or interior. The result is a significantly stronger product that delivers more intense effects than standard pre-rolls.

The manufacturing process for infused pre-rolls involves careful integration of concentrates with ground flower. Internal infusion involves either mixing concentrates directly with the flower before rolling or injecting into the pre-roll after the rolling process. External methods include coating the outside with distillate and then rolling in kief. 

Making the Right Choice

Choosing between non-infused and infused pre-rolls can come down to several factors. Consider your tolerance and experience level first. If you are new to cannabis or have a lower tolerance, the safer route would be to start with a regular pre-roll. This will help you better understand the effects of cannabis without the risk of an overwhelming experience. The rule of thumb is to start slow and go low!

Next, consider your budget. Regular pre-rolls are fairly inexpensive compared to infused pre-rolls because infused pre-rolls contain added concentrates that can increase the price. Try looking for multi-pack pre-rolls to get the best bang for your buck!

Last but not least, consider context. Hanging out with friends in a social setting works best with a regular pre-roll that won't overwhelm you or your friends, while infused could be best for a solo session when you want a deeper creative mind or deeper relaxation.

When choosing between infused and non-infused pre-rolls, the best option comes down to your tolerance, desired potency, and the type of experience you're looking for. Traditional pre-rolls offer a classic, straightforward session, while infused pre-rolls deliver an extra boost for those seeking something more intense. No matter which option you choose, start with a small amount, pace yourself, and enjoy the experience responsibly!
