Royal Blunts: Strawberry Banana
August 25th, 2006 by Alex
Royal Blunts Strawberry ($2) was the first offering released in their flavor line-up, so it’s a good place to guage where Royal started and where they’re headed. You can see the packaging has a small, see-through plastic window. I’m not a fan of this because it allows light to enter the tube packaging and dry out the leaf. Unfortunately, this is exactly what happened with their product. The Strawberry leaf was the dryest wrap that tFS has ever encountered. This SOB was ripping at the edges and brittle as hell.
Helpful Tip: if your blunt wrap is obviously dry, slide the holder straw out from the middle before attempting to unroll the leaf. This will prevent hang-ups and tearing on the top and bottom edges.
After getting past the dryness, it was time to evaluate the quality. The strawberry was very subtle to smell, but this isn’t necessarily bad. You don’t need an aroma to punch you in the nose to smell good. The blunt tasted very sweet but didn’t add much flavor to the smoke, if any. It did burn with the normal Royal Blunts quality we’ve come to expect. Overall, this isn’t a bad blunt, I’d just like to see the packaging redesigned to make sure I’m purchasing a fresh product.
