Keeping your rollies lit?

    Recently (after switching to Amber Leaf), I've started to have problems with keeping my rollies lit up. They seem to go out every few minutes if I don't drag.

    The burn always starts nicely but then deteriorates and I end up having a suck like crazy or just relight.

    Anyone have this problem? I don't want to go for tailored cigs just for the burn but this is getting annoying. :3

    You're probably just rolling them too tight. Try and roll them keeping the tobacco springy and not too compacted. If you find a lot of resistance when you're taking a drag, even when it's unlit, then I'd say that's your problem. Don't roll them too loosely either or else they tend to burn a bit hot, it's a bit of a balancing act tbh. You'll get better with practice.

    Also make sure you separate the tobacco well before you roll and spread it out evenly on the paper, I find this helps me make a more even cigarette with the proper consistency.

    Usually found this to be a "pro" rather than a "con" myself, as cigs would "smoke themselves" if I wasn't paying attention to them!
