Infused pre-rolls.
Flower, turned up.
A pre-roll laced with concentrate — diamonds, live resin, hash or kief. Far stronger than standard rolls, often 35–50% total THC. Here's how they're made, what each infusion does, and where to find them cheapest near you.
The kinds of infusion
What's added — and how — decides the strength, flavour, and price. From a light kief dusting to potent THCA diamonds, here's the lineup, from gentlest to hardest-hitting.
Three ways to infuse a joint.
Infusion happens in one of three places: dusted on the outside, twaxed in a ring around the paper, or cored down the middle. The concentrate used — and where it goes — sets the strength and the burn. They hit far harder than standard rolls, so the golden rule is to go slow.
| Potency | 18–28% THC | 35–50%+ THC |
| Flavour | Strain flavour | Bigger, concentrate-led |
| Burn | Even, ~10 min | Slow, can re-light |
| Price | $–$$ | $$–$$$ |
Inside, outside, or both.
Where the concentrate goes changes how the joint smokes. Knowing the method tells you what to expect before you light up.
Treat it like a dab.
An infused pre-roll can carry two to three times the THC of a normal joint. Pace yourself — especially if you usually smoke regular flower.

The questions we get most before someone's first infused joint.
A pre-roll where the flower is boosted with a cannabis concentrate — kief, hash, distillate, live resin, or THCA diamonds — added on the outside, inside, or both. The result is far more potent than a standard rolled joint.
A lot. Standard rolls run 18–28% THC; infused rolls commonly hit 35–50%+ total. That's roughly double, so a couple of puffs can equal a whole regular joint.
Diamonds are near-pure THCA crystals — the strongest, with little added flavour. Live resin keeps the strain's terpenes, so it's loud and flavourful. Kief is the gentlest and cheapest. Hash sits in between, full-spectrum and classic.
Infused rolls burn slower and can go out — that's normal. Take slow, gentle puffs, re-light as needed, and rest it upright. The concentrate makes it sticky, so an even pack and patience pay off.
Per gram they cost more than standard rolls, but per milligram of THC they're often cheaper — you're buying concentrate plus flower in one. For high-tolerance smokers they can be the best value on the menu.
It can if you treat it like a normal joint. Because total THC is so high, start with one or two puffs, wait, and share it. It's always easier to add than to undo.
