The Great Canadian Paper Caper: How Your Rolling Papers Are Secretly Battling Winter Storage Conditions

Rolling papers, like all paper products, are made primarily of cellulose fibers derived from plants. These fibers are hygroscopic, which is a fancy way of saying they absorb and release moisture from their surroundings. In ideal conditions, paper maintains a delicate balance of moisture content, typically around 7-9%.Your rolling papers prefer things not too hot, not too cold, but just right. Aim to store them in a place with a consistent temperature between 15-21°C (60-70°F). This means avoiding those tempting windowsills and steering clear of heat sources like radiators or fireplaces.
