When you hear the words “tobacco products” you probably think of one of two things—either cigarettes or cigars. Maybe you also thinking of chewing tobacco, although that may seem like something out of an old Western. The truth is, though, that tobacco products include a wide world of possibilities, and so do cannabis products. There are plenty of ways to enjoy cannabis that don’t include smoking a joint (although that’s fine, too), and a real connoisseur can tell the difference between the various flavors and forms these products take.

There are plenty of ways to enjoy cannabis that don’t include smoking a joint (although that’s fine, too), and a real connoisseur can tell the difference between the various flavors and forms these products take.
For example, a tobacco smoker or cannabis user may enjoy pipe tobacco or a mild cigar. Cannabis users may prefer different strains, like Sativa or Indica. Different strains and forms come with different features, like varying THC content or a particularly fruity flavor. The sky’s the limit when it comes to enjoying cannabis and tobacco use. Of course, using any of these products also comes with its risks, and you should discuss use with a doctor before engaging for the first time.
Intrigued? Great! Let’s dive in and discuss a few types of cannabis and tobacco products that you may find delicious.
Open a pack of cigars or cigarillos for flavor and aroma.
Cigars and cigarillos tend to be an acquired taste, especially the classic cigars that have a far stronger aroma than most cigarettes. That said, if you’re a smoker who wants to try out cigars or cigarillos, there are little cigars out there with a mild aroma and less of an intense taste. These cigars, such as Black and Mild, are a great way to introduce yourself to the world of cigar smoking. Then, if you find that a mild cigar is to your liking, you can always pick up a pack of cigars with a stronger flavor afterwards.
Choose the right herb for your specific preference.
Not all cannabis strains are made alike, and it’s important to review your options before enjoying any bud. For example, Green Crack is a form of Sativa herb that’s been very popular among dispensary customers for a while now. Green Crack, which is also known by the names Green Cush or Cush, has a great flavor and high THC content. Actually, the Green Crack strain is a Sativa-dominant hybrid in its essence, but it has a more enjoyable flavor than regular Sativa. Of course, a smoker who has a tendency to experience paranoia or fatigue when smoking cannabis strains would want something less potent than Green Crack and might opt for Indica instead. It’s a good idea to try a little bit of Green Crack before smoking many ounces of the herb at a social event (or even alone).
Not a smoker? Try cannabis drinks or gummies.
If you’re less of a smoker and more an enjoyer of various sweets, don’t worry! You can still enjoy the relaxing and uplifting effect of cannabinoids! CBD drinks and edibles (like baked goods or gummies) can go a long way towards enjoying various cannabis strains. It’s still a good idea to be mindful of potency before enjoying cannabis in this way, though. If you eat a brownie with high THC content you may still experience paranoia or extreme fatigue, even though you didn’t smoke it. Remember, not everyone is Snoop Dogg and can enjoy pure cannabis without negative side effects. Be sure to read the labels on any cannabis products you ingest and consult with pros about potency levels first.
Across the United States, people are enjoying tobacco products and cannabis strains in many ways. Why opt for the same old experience when you could try something new? Try out these options but remember, enjoy wisely and safely.
