new roll ups by J.P.BLUE

dollyk · 08-04-2011 6:49pm #1

did anyone try these, they come in a box, complete with roll papers and filter attached
well they are tubes with no tobacco in them.
they give you the tobacco in little rolls, so you dont have to measure.
they work out at about 5 euro for 20.
got a sample off the girl next door, they are going into shops this week.
has anyone else tried them, they are easy to roll, but i dont think the savings are just, as i messed up some papers trying to fit them on the machine.

i was smoking these in germany for ages it's only a small saving over here tho

but over there i paid about€5 for a 50 gram pouch and €3 for 200 of those tubes
they are great because yo u can stock up and roll 15-20for the day and stick them in a metal tin or something

@ captain morgan
they are closer to JPS red depends on what exact type of tobacco you get

Thought JPB were Irish only?

I'd be interested enough in trying these out. To the OP do you know when they are being officially launched?

JPB are probably irish only
but the John player Brand is fairly big internationally
known as JPS or John Player Special (Red Silver and green )

Hmm, sounds interesting.

I have a load of Rizla Concept tubes with a tube filling machine. However, at time of purchase, I didn't realise that it's pretty useless with the rolling tobacco we're used to - I believe they need dryer tobacco for that purpose.

So that JP stuff might be useful if it was possible to buy the tobacco alone without the tubes.

No they are not allowed to advertise ?, so i suppose its word of mouth. you have to ask for them,
but i get the feeling that they are leftover jp red,
that didnt make the sales.
im thinking that once the reserves are gone, there gone lol.
and i tried rolling tabacco, it dont work, just rips the paper.

the only place i know that sells them is..the newsagents in the shopping centre in drogheda

I can just see Captain Morgan being blacklisted and his picture being circulated around shops in Dublin for pestering shopkeepers about JPB Rollies!:pac::pac:

We got JP gold in recently, they look like knock-off marlboro lights tbh, they're roughly the same strength.

she didnt give me the box just tubes and rolls of tobacco.

SteoL · 29-04-2011 4:37pm

When I google them this thread is the first hit. :eek:

I'm actually really looking forward to trying these out.

Just sent them an email there.

I only smoke the rollies myself because I prefer a quick smoke so with fags I end up throwing away a lot as I hate smoking a topper.
If someone sold smaller fags I'd be delighted.

They emailed me back a list of shops in Cork that stock them, there's 44 in total but I don't have a clue how to upload an Excel file so if any one in Cork want to know just pm me.

Is this them?

lord lucan · 24-05-2011 10:19pm

Tempted to give these a go but i'm not sure about the tobacco. The only JP brand i've ever liked is JPS Black,haven't tried Red in about 15 years and never liked Blue(too mild for my tastes).

Irishpimpdude · 26-05-2011 7:34pm

Anyone know were i can get one of these in dublin?

Major are smaller but fatter so it kind of balances out IMO

Not me, I don't smoke... my partner does though and he's liking them... only trying them the last two days though so he may not keep it up... he finds that he has to take it slow making them or the paper rips, he hasn't had a problem with the tobacco falling out if he pre makes a few though...

tapit54 · 09-07-2011 7:37am

Does anyone have a list of stores in Cork where these can be got?
Thanks

Terrontress · 11-07-2011 5:47pm

Not in Cork and not relevant to this forum probably but I have seen this on sale in the Co-Operative in Birmingham, priced at 5.99.

Eric Cartman · 17-07-2011 1:41pm

anyone know anywhere in south dublin (preferably dundrum/sandyford) that has these ?

twitch1984 · 31-07-2011 10:30am

anybody know if these are in Waterford anywhere

January · 31-07-2011 12:43pm

Guys your best bet is to fire off an email to the email address Captain Morgan supplied... the guy got back to me within 24 hours with a list of stores in my area.

iggy · 11-08-2011 10:22pm

Bought these today and have to say im impressed.

Open the machine fully back, sprinkle out the tobacco evenly, use the little plastic thingy to pack it tightly, put on the tube carefully, close roller machine,
pull back as far as it goes and then pull forward to original position, take off smoke slowly.

They turned out pretty good for me and I have my 20 rolled for tomorrow and put in my tin.

I also bought one of these cigareete cases here
