RAW is a famous brand of pure, minimally processed rolling paper, the leading brand in the United States! Because they contain a blend of unbleached fibers (no chlorine), the paper has a translucent brown tint. RAW rolling papers are also slow burning and have no additives to give you the best experience.
Each paper is marked with a patented CrissCross watermark. RAW is available in many sizes from classic to slim to meet the needs of the most discerning connoisseur.
Founded in 1995 by Josh Kesselman, RAW is an American brand of rolling papers and accessories for smokers.
Passionate about rolling papers since the beginning of his life, the founder of the RAW brand decided in the early 90's to sell everything he owned to develop a range of rolling papers for cigarette smokers but also for cannabis smokers with his pre-rolled cones and cardboard filters (toncar).
In 1997, Kesselman met the owner of a small rolling paper factory in Spain in the Alcoy region. He joined this small company, developed the line and created the Blunt brand Juicy Jay's and Elements.
In the early 2000's, J.Kesselman, tired of not finding natural and untreated rolling papers, decided to launch the production of vegan rolling papers.
« Personne ne fabriquait de papier naturel sans eau de javel, sans craie et je le voulais ! Et je savais même comment j’allais les appeler : Raw, à cause d’une chanson de Big Daddy Kane qui m’est venue à l’esprit en 1988. Mais quand je suis allé dans les papeteries pour présenter mon idée des matériaux dont j’avais besoin, personne ne voulait fais-les moi. Ils m’ont tous ri au nez; ils m’ont dit que personne ne voulait fumer un sac en papier.”
J.Kesselman
Despite his disappointment and the criticism of those around him, Josh did not give up because he knew that real smokers would understand his idea and his vision. His natural and unbleached rolling papers would be nothing like a paper bag: they would be incredibly thin, transparent and would burn perfectly.
His perseverance eventually paid off. He finally convinced a very small factory to manufacture his paper. This concept of rolling papers made of natural unbleached hemp fibers is a huge success. In 2008, the brand was noticed by the hip-hop world and the rise was meteoric. The RAW sheets are now sold worldwide and the brand is often quoted in the artistic world as in the hit "RAW" of Wiz Khalifa.
If RAW Papers is as successful as it is today, it is partly due to the strong media presence of its founder and his unique personality. Original and sometimes a little offbeat, Kesselman is almost omnipresent on social networks to talk about his brand, his product line and innovations but also to provide his valuable advice to smokers around the world.
As a true enthusiast, Josh does not shoot his videos to sell you his products. He shows you what he's really passionate about: He'll teach you how to roll the perfect joint, the differences and subtleties that exist between different rolling papers or how to make a toncar.
