Pre-rolls.
Love them or hate them, we're here to set the record straight: are they worth it?
Step off the platform at Amsterdam Central Station and you're bound to be hit with a scent of the green stuff within, lets say, at most 5-10 minutes. But what really is it that you're smelling?
Amsterdam is home to over 160 coffeeshops offering a wide variety of smokeables, so when you're not sure what you're ordering or where you're buying it from - the task can be a little daunting.
When it comes down to it, essentially all green is cut from the same grass. But from the process of growing right the way through to rolling up, there are so many variables along the way that will change the way you smoke, and ultimately the effect you're going to feel from it.
From facts to fairytales, there are many things to be said about different smoking options, and often, pre-rolls get the brunt of it. Our team of experts have dedicated blood, sweat, and tears to get the facts straight from the fairytales for you, so here goes:
"Pre-rolls don't get you high, they're just full of tobacco"
While you may run into some pretty questionable pre-rolls, so long as you're buying from a reputable organisation you can rest assured that they'll do the job. In fact, if you head to Prix D'Ami you'll discover a variety of pre-rolls with different measures of bud in them, from blunts to much subtler choices.
Fact or Fairytale: Fairytale. If you're not sure what you're getting always ask questions. If you're still not satisfied - don't buy!
"Pre-rolls aren't real J's"
Fortunately, this is absolutely not true. If you hear this statement, you're likely talking to an experienced smoker who enjoys their own rolls made perfectly to their taste, and little else will do the job for them.
Fact or Fairytale: Fairytale.
"Pre-rolls are full of toxins"
We can't speak for other coffeeshops on this one, but we'd advise that you make sure you're buying from a reputable distributer when purchasing pre-rolls who can explain the products they use in detail when prompted. At Prix D'Ami we work at the highest standards using only the best products, if you're interested to learn more feel free to pop in store and speak to our team!
Fact or Fairytale: Fairytale.
Everyone has their own preference when it comes to smoking - some don't even choose to smoke their bud at all. Conclusively, pre-rolls can be really awesome when you're buying the right ones, and depending on your level as a smoker you can always find a pre-roll suited to you.
