What Is an Infused Pre-Roll? (And When It's Overkill)
An infused pre-roll is a joint or blunt with a concentrate added to the flower: kief, THCa diamonds, live resin, rosin, or bubble hash. That one ingredient pushes total THC from the 20–30% of a regular joint to roughly 26–47% on our shelf, and it changes how the joint burns, what it costs, and who it's for.

What Is an Infused Pre-Roll?
An infused pre-roll is a ready-rolled joint where the flower has a cannabis concentrate mixed into the grind, laid through the middle, or coated on the outside, and the label usually names which concentrate. Those concentrates test from about 65% to 88% THC on our shelf, and flower tests at 20–30%, so the finished joint lands in between: about 26% to 47% on our menu right now.
Everything else- the burn, the price, the pacing- follows from that one ingredient. Think of it as the same trail with a heavier pack: you'll go slower, and you'll probably stop before the end.
How Infused Pre-Rolls Are Made
Powders get mixed through the grind or dusted on, oils get injected, and solid hash gets rolled into a core. Here's each type with one example from our shelf, prices as of Oct 2026.
Kief and Moonrock Infused
Kief is the trichome powder sifted off dried flower, mixed into the grind or stuck to the outside of the paper. A moonrock is a nug dipped in oil and rolled in kief, then broken up into the joint. Presidential Moonrock Infused Preroll (1g, $18.92–$20.16) is the one on our shelf.
Diamond and Liquid Diamond Infused
THCa diamonds are the crystals that form when an extract is left to separate; they test extremely high and carry little flavor. Liquid diamonds are those crystals melted back into their terpene sauce, an oil the roller injects down the center of the joint. STIIIZY 40s (live resin and THCa diamonds under a kief coat, 1g, $11.76) and Jeeter infused pre-rolls (liquid diamonds and kief, 1g, $14.56) are the best-known examples here; the Biscotti 40 is an easy first pick.
Live Resin Infused
Live resin comes from flower frozen at harvest, then extracted with a hydrocarbon solvent and purged. It stays sticky and terpene-heavy, so rollers warm it into an oil and inject it or spread it through the grind. Jesters Thin Mint Cookies Live Resin Infused Preroll (1.5g, $13, 45.6% THC) is the example on our menu; more on the extraction in our live resin guide.
Rosin Infused (Solventless)
Rosin is pressed out of flower or hash with heat and pressure and nothing else, so it costs more per gram than resin. In a pre-roll it's usually a thin rope laid down the center before the joint is closed. Dragonfly Rosin Infused Preroll (1.25g, $9) is the easy entry; the concentrates page covers what rosin costs on its own.
Bubble Hash and Hash Holes
Bubble hash is fresh-frozen flower washed in ice water and sifted through screens, with no solvent or press involved. It goes in as a powder through the grind or, in a hash hole, as a solid core of hash or rosin down the length of the joint that leaves a hollow "donut" ring in the ash. Smoorhouse Bubble Hash Infused Multipack (7-pack, $33.60) covers the hash side; the Apex Solventless Dino Doink (1.5g, $44.80) is the hash hole on our shelf.
Infused vs. Regular Pre-Rolls
Side by side, the difference is one ingredient and everything that follows from it. Prices as of Oct 2026.
| Regular pre-roll | Infused pre-roll | |
|---|---|---|
| What's inside | Ground flower, sometimes shake | Flower plus kief, diamonds, resin, rosin, or hash |
| THC on our menu today | About 20–30% (Grown Rogue 1g: 28.03%) | About 26–47% (Wojo Bukbuk Bobuk: 47.11%) |
| Burn | Even and quick; one sitting per 1g | Slower, hotter, goes out; often two sittings per 1g |
| Price at Banzen | $3.24–$9.96 per 1g | $3.80–$22.40 per single; hash holes to $56 |
| Who it suits | Daytime, sharing, first-timers, finishing a joint in one go | Experienced smokers, a slow evening, making a little flower go a long way |

When an Infused Pre-Roll Is Overkill
Infused pre-rolls are the strongest thing you can buy in joint form, and plenty of days call for less. Here's when we'd point you back to a regular pre-roll.
First-timers
Learn how a 20% joint sits with you before you double it.
Daytime
A 40% joint before errands or a shift on the water is a lot to carry around; a half-gram regular does the job.
Low tolerance or a long break
Tolerance drops fast when you step away; handle the first infused joint after a break like the first one ever.
Anyone who wants to finish a joint
Most people put a 1g infused pre-roll out halfway; if you like smoking one down and being done, buy a regular 1g or a pack of minis.
How to Smoke an Infused Pre-Roll
Concentrate burns hotter and slower than flower, so the technique changes a little. Three habits cover it.
Draw slow and low
Long, gentle pulls keep the cherry from running up one side and the oil from scorching. If it canoes, turn the slow side up and let it catch up.
Expect to relight
Infused joints go out when the concentrate pools, especially rosin and hash. Tap the ash, wait a few seconds, and relight at the edge of the paper.
Plan on two sessions per gram
Pinch the tip or cap it in the tube it came in. If you'd rather skip that, 5-packs of 0.5g minis from Jeeter, Jungle Juice, and STIIIZY are the easy entry: one mini, one session.
What Infused Pre-Rolls Cost Per Gram
The infusion adds cost, but less than you'd guess. As of Oct 2026, deli flower runs $4 to $7 a gram, regular 1g pre-rolls $3.24 to $9.96, infused singles $3.80 to $22.40 for 1g to 1.5g, and a gram of concentrate on its own $7.62 up to $67.20.
So an infused joint costs more per gram than flower and far less than buying both parts separately. The specialty end is where it climbs: the Dino Doink hash hole is $44.80 for 1.5g because rosin is most of what's inside. Multipacks bring the per-joint cost down (MKX Liquid Diamond 5-packs are $13), and Manic Mondays take a cut off concentrates and infused pre-rolls; the deals page has the current number.

Pace Yourself
Start With Half
Light it, take two or three slow draws, and put it out. Give it a few minutes before you decide whether to relight.
Tell the Crew What It Is
A 40% joint going around the circle is a different pace than the 20% one your friends expect. Say "it's infused" before you pass it, and don't drive or run machinery afterward.
Store It Sealed and Cool
Concentrate softens in a warm car and glues the paper shut. Keep infused joints in their tube, out of heat and sun, and away from kids and pets.

Infused Pre-Roll FAQ
An infused pre-roll is a joint or blunt with a cannabis concentrate added to the flower: kief, THCa diamonds, live resin, rosin, or bubble hash. The concentrate raises the THC well above a regular joint and slows the burn; the label names which infusion you're getting.
Infused pre-rolls on our menu test between about 26% and 47% total THC; regular pre-rolls run roughly 20–30%. Trust the number on the label, not the line name: "40s" is branding, not a test result. Our label guide explains that number.
A regular pre-roll is ground flower and paper. An infused pre-roll adds a concentrate inside, outside, or both, which pushes the THC from the 20s into the 30s and 40s, slows the burn, and raises the price per gram.
Kief, THCa or liquid diamonds, live resin, rosin, or bubble hash, and the label names which. Some lines combine two or three; STIIIZY 40s use live resin and diamonds under a kief coat.
Yes. The concentrate burns hotter and slower, pools when the joint sits, and makes it go out more often, so slow draws and the occasional relight are part of the deal.
If you want a little flower to go a long way, yes: a 1g infused joint usually covers two sessions and costs less than flower plus a gram of concentrate bought separately. If you're new, smoking during the day, or like finishing a joint, a regular pre-roll or a 5-pack of minis is the better buy.
A hash hole is a pre-roll with a solid core of hash or rosin down the center, so it burns with a hollow "donut" ring in the ash. It's the format with the most concentrate in it; at Banzen that's the Apex Solventless Dino Doink, $44.80 for 1.5g as of Oct 2026.
As of Oct 2026, most infused singles run $3.80 to $22.40, 5-packs $13 to $33.60, and hash holes $44.80 to $56. Manic Mondays and the first-visit 30% bring those down; the deals page has the current numbers.
