 Who Invented The Pre-Roll?

Cannabis pre-rolls have become a popular and convenient way to smoke.

Pre-rolling marijuana became popular in California in the early 2000s, when medical marijuana dispensaries started selling pre-rolled joints and cones. The shake-filled pre-rolled joints were made to order, with the customer's choice of strain before being packaged, Sealed and sold. 

This was a great way for dispensary customers to enjoy cannabis conveniently, without the hassle of buying rolling papers, grinding the weed, and rolling it themselves at home. 

At the turn of the century, a man from Canada, Yvon Richard, is credited with inventing the pre-roll. Richard was a tobacconist who was tired of seeing busy patrons not being able to smoke their cigars due to a lack of time. So he went to work inventing a skillful way to dry and shape cigars so that they could be smoked more quickly and conveniently. Thus, the pre-roll was born. Richard called it the “quick-burn” cigar and it quickly became popular that eventually, U.S. cigar companies started producing pre-rolls as well.

Pre-rolls are convenient, easy to find, and great for when you need to smoke quickly and efficiently.
