What is a cigarette joint called?

Published in Tobacco Terminology 1 min read

A cigarette joint is simply called a cigarette. The term "joint" is generally used to refer to a hand-rolled cigarette containing cannabis (marijuana) rather than tobacco. If tobacco is combined with cannabis in a hand-rolled cigarette, it's sometimes called a "spliff."

Therefore:

  • Cigarette: Contains tobacco only.
  • Joint: Contains cannabis only.
  • Spliff: Contains a mixture of tobacco and cannabis.
