BLUNT [6 records]

Record 1 2022-10-28

English

Subject field(s)
  • Drugs and Drug Addiction
CONT

Blunts are usually best when passed around and shared with a group of friends in a relaxed environment. Whereas spliffs and joints are often used casually throughout the day for a quick high, the longer preparation time and more potent effects of a blunt make them more suited for special occasions and dedicated smoke sessions.

PHR

hit the blunt

French

Domaine(s)
  • Drogues et toxicomanie
DEF

Cigare formé de feuilles de tabac enroulées autour de marijuana.

CONT

Les blunts sont les cigares du monde du cannabis [...] Au contraire des spliffs et des joints, les feuilles à rouler ne sont pas utilisées pour réaliser des blunts. Ils sont roulés soit en utilisant des enveloppes à blunt spéciales fabriquées à partir de pulpe de tabac, soit en vidant un cigare et en utilisant la couche extérieure pour rouler l'herbe.
