What do you know about the gum of your Rolling Paper?

Sugar gum is as simple as it looks; The gum is made of sugar. Acacia (Arabic) gum, on the other hand, is innocently extracted from the Acacia tree *. In addition to these two more traditional, Hemp gum is extracted from the leaves of cannabis. These are the only forms of true 100% NATURAL GUM.

Both gums hold well as long as they are dampened properly. These gums require only a slight licking to moisten the gum line. Unfortunately, smokers often lick too much. This can "lick" the gums and potentially cause the paper to not get stuck. A good tip is to moisten the gum line from the back of the paper. All Zen, Elements, Rollies, Chills, Raw, Brown Sugar and flavored / printed items use these truly natural gums. These gums are perfect for your vegan / vegetarian or environmentally friendly consumers. One way to know for sure if a paper uses 100% natural vegetarian ginger to see where it is made. If you see "made in Spain", then the paper definitely uses natural gum based on sugar or acacia, since both factories in Spain use only vegetarian gums. Acacia rolling paper gum is derived from the resins of a particular type of African acacia tree - the Senegalese acacia. This variety Acacia was better known in the days of the pharaohs; Today, it has become more rare. These Acacias are slowly growing desert trees. It is said that its roots spread up to 20 kilometers. Now the tree is native only to Sudan, although it has also been grown on small farms in Mali, Niger and Senegal. Cardboard factories use chewing gum from both sources, the wild and the domesticated. The acacia resin, once extracted from the trees, is dissolved in water, filtered, pasteurized and made into fine powder, 100% pure, 100% virgin. It is a substance completely without chemicals, without additives of any kind. It passes the most commonly known standard food parameters; It has no taste or calories; It has slightly beneficial characteristics, being a natural cholesterol reducer.

The animal-based colon is exactly what it looks like and some factories still use it in their production. It is unfortunate that this practice is still common, but certain paper mills use gum that is made from dead animals being able / fermenting (remember the old adage about old horses being sent to the glue factory, this is based on actual fact ). There has been some controversy over the fact of it, because unscrupulous companies have started calling their "Natural Gum" animal-based gum papers. They claim that the glue of dead animals is technically "natural." Again, this really confuses customers by thinking that this "Natural Gum" and the truly natural gums of Sugar and Acacia are the same thing. Try to avoid those who use animal gum. This is difficult because many brands do not openly admit the use of animal gum. The best tip that we can convey to you is this: when moistening the gum in natural rubber roll papers, such as Elements or Raw, is to make sure to lick even more or better yet, lick the back of the gumline instead. That way, you will not lick the sugar-based gum and your fumes will get better.
