While on vacation in America a couple months ago, I had the opportunity to teach a few folks how to roll a joint Dutch style (and how to smoke it....which end first....LOL
as in the case of our much loved Green Lantern! )
It is often called Dutch style, but actually it should be called just simply European style, cause people from many different European countries all roll the same way, eg. Germany, Italy, France, Swiss, Belgium, Spain, Denmark, etc.etc.etc. Perhaps it got the name Dutch style due to the coffeeshop factor in the Netherlands and how they sell pre-rolled joints.
Anyway, a couple of folks have asked how to roll Dutch style (we'll just keep calling it Dutch style for continuity), so here's the best I can do. Was a bit hard trying to hold the camera AND roll so please bear with me as the pics aren't the greatest.
Items needed: Whatever your flavor of the day is in cannabis, finely broken up; a pre-cut filter tip (if you can't find these in your area just use a stiff piece of paper cut to the approximate size in the pic), and a long size rolling paper...I prefer Smoking Blue, they are wide enough to work with
Step 1: Pre-cut filter tip
Step 2: Bend one end back and forth like an accordian to make the letter 'W'
Step 3: Roll tip so that the 'W' is to the inside
Step 4: Place your favorite herb inside the paper, allowing room on the end to place the rolled up filter
Step 5: Lay the rolled up filter tip into the end and roll up.
Step 6: It should look something like this now
Step 7: Pack it by bouncing the end on a hard surface, like the table, then twist the end to further pack down
Step 8: Should look like this
Step 9: Snip the twisted end off and it's ready to light! Be sure to light the twisted end, not the paper filter tip end....Green Lantern knows from experience about that one! LOL
Step 10: Sit back and enjoy!
So there's my 10 step program on how to roll Dutch/European style. There are other ways to roll that end up looking about the same, some roll 'inside/out'.....that's a tough one and still haven't got that one down yet.
The good part of using a tip is that you are not left with some yukky roach with clogged up end.
That's it.....Class over! Now everyone try this out and I bet you'll like it.
