Because the RAW papers are without additives and bleach, they have a light brown colour which makes them stand out from all the white papers on the market. They are still as thin as the other big brands, giving them the half transparent finish so that you can see what’s inside. To us, they also have a better taste than the white papers, but this is just our personal opinion and it might even be placebo, so don’t trust us until you’ve tried them yourself! Another interesting thing is that the RAW papers have a special zig-zag pattern imprinted which according to the manufacturers helps the spliff burn evenly as well as the oily resin not getting sucked into the roach.
