The Making of Ready-to-Roll

Behind the Scenes: Crafting Old Pal’s “Ready-to-Roll” Kits

There’s something uniquely satisfying about rolling a fresh joint. Whether it’s the ritual of grinding, the art of rolling, or the moment you light up and pass it around, every step is part of a cherished tradition in cannabis culture. 

At Old Pal, we’ve simplified this process without sacrificing the soul of the experience with our “Ready-to-Roll” kits. Designed for convenience, quality, and portability, these kits ensure that whether you’re sharing with friends or enjoying a solo session, you’re always ready to whip up a perfectly rolled doobie. 

Let’s take a behind-the-scenes look at how these popular kits are crafted, ensuring you get nothing but the best from bud to joint.

The Genesis of the “Ready-to-Roll” Kits 

Old Pal’s Ready-to-Roll kits were born from a simple idea: make it easier for everyone to enjoy cannabis, regardless of their rolling skills or equipment. We wanted to capture the essence of traditional joint rolling and provide a streamlined, user-friendly solution. 

Available in Sativa, Indica, and Hybrid options, each kit is tailored to fit a variety of moods and experiences, ensuring that all cannabis enthusiasts, from novices to connoisseurs, can find their perfect match.

Step-by-Step: Crafting the Perfect Roll 

Okay, you’ve got this. The only thing you might need besides what’s included in the kit is a surface to roll on (we’ve used tables and dashboards and magazines and even just our laps, but you might prefer this sick rolling tray). Oh, and a lighter to spark that bad boy up. 

Step 1: Starting with Whole Buds 

Our journey begins with selecting premium, whole buds that are rich in flavor and potency. We never use shake or reggie weed! Our kits are filled with high-grade, terpene-filled cannabis to ensure a superior experience from the first puff.

Step 2: Initial Trim 

The selected buds undergo an initial trim where excess leaves and stems are carefully removed. This process helps in preserving the terpenes and trichomes, ensuring that the flavor and efficacy of the cannabis are maintained.

Step 3: Sifting and Sorting 

Once trimmed, the buds are sifted and sorted multiple times to eliminate any remaining sticks and stems. We typically repeat this step 3-5 times, a testament to our commitment to quality. This meticulous sifting ensures that only the finest particles reach the next stage.

Step 4: Coarse Grinding

After sifting, the flower is coarsely ground to create the ideal texture for rolling. It ought to look and feel like it just came out of a personal use grinder. This specific grind ensures that the cannabis burns evenly and smoothly, enhancing the smoking experience. Not to mention, it makes it easier to learn how to roll a joint!

Step 5: Quality Control 

Our commitment to quality doesn’t stop at grinding. The ground flower undergoes a final round of quality control to ensure that only perfectly sized particles are packed. This step is crucial for consistent quality and smokability.

Step 6: Packing and Sealing 

The final ground product is then packed into our custom-designed, resealable Old Pal pouches. The production team will leave the interior seal intact, ready for folks to peel and shut after your first use of Ready to Roll. Rolling papers and crutches are added as the final touch, ensuring that you have everything you need in one compact, easy-to-carry kit.

Times That Call for a Pre-Roll

Whether you’re navigating the highs and lows of daily life or just looking for a reason to spark up, here are some quintessential times when a joint just makes perfect sense:

  1. The Classic Sunset Watch: There’s nothing like greeting the golden hour with a golden glow. Whether you’re on a beach, a rooftop, or your front porch, a doob can make the moment even more magical.
  2. Post-Work Wind Down: After a long day’s grind, lighting a joint can be your signal to relax and recharge.
  3. Pre-Party Prep: Getting ready for a night out? Why not start the festivities early with a jay to set the vibe and get your groove on?
  4. Nature Walks: Enhance your connection with nature and deepen your appreciation of the little things—a butterfly, the sound of a creek, the rustle of leaves—the sound of your lighter flicking….
  5. When the In-Laws Announce a Surprise Visit: Sometimes, you need a little buffer to handle the unexpected. A quick puff might just be the secret to keeping the peace (and your sanity).
  6. Binge-Watching Your Favorite Series: Whether it’s the tension of a thriller or the laughs of a sitcom, a little perfectly rolled reefer can make your TV time a richer experience.
  7. After a Breakup: Got the blues? Sometimes a little green can help you get through the tough times, turning a night in with ice cream and sad movies into something a bit more bearable.
  8. Creative Block: Whether you’re painting, writing, or composing, a fatty joint might just be the muse you need to get those creative juices flowing again.
  9. Camping Trips: From sparking stories around the campfire to enjoying the star-studded sky, a pre-roll complements every campsite.
  10. When Your Favorite Team Loses (Again): Sometimes you just need a pick-me-up when the game doesn’t go your way. A joint might not change the score, but it can lift your spirits.
  11. Lazy Sunday Afternoons: There’s something sublime about doing nothing at all. Enhance your relaxation with a stick to make lounging around feel like a planned event.
  12. Cooking Marathon: Experimenting in the kitchen? Add a sprinkle of fun to your culinary creations with a pre-roll by your side, or throw a pinch in your favorite weed brownies recipe.

Basically, joints are perfect for both christening major life events and celebrating the mundane.
