Pre-rolled joints have become one of the most popular and convenient ways to smoke cannabis. Although they’re available nearly anywhere you buy weed, they aren’t all the same. Quality can vary widely, from the material used to the way they were rolled. You may opt for the cheapest option just to experience a harsh smoke, uneven burn, and weak effects. Thus, premium options tend to be worth the extra dollar.
A prime example of premium pre-rolls that provide an all-around stellar experience is Ayr Wellness’ STiX brand. The vertically-integrated MSO is known in multiple US markets for their innovative, intentional, and consistently high-quality cannabis products. Their passion for the plant and those who consume it have led to the creation of multiple industry-leading products, like their STiX pre-rolls.
TrailStix Preroll Packs by Ayr Wellness
While visiting Massachusetts, Respect My Region had the opportunity to pick up a pack of STiX pre-rolls from Ayr Wellness’ Watertown location. After chatting with their knowledgeable budtenders, we landed on the Mai Tai x Zkittlez Cake TrailStix Preroll Pack. From the moment we laid hands on the sleek packaging, we were impressed and intrigued by the intentional branding and vessel.

Each pre-roll pack contains a total of 3.5 grams of premium flower split into seven half-gram joints. Unlike the commonly found cone-shaped joints, these have a cylinder-like form, similar to cigarettes. This design proved to burn better than most other pre-roll products we’ve tried. However, the main differentiator is the additional materials provided to assist in lighting up. Each compact package contains matches and a match strip so you can easily light up on the go.
Additionally, each package has a thorough rundown of the cannabinoid and terpene profile, which we greatly appreciate as conscious consumers. This particular product contained 20.8% THC, 9.42% CBDa, 0.05 CBGa, and 0.38 CBG. This balance of cannabinoids made for a steady high that was potent but not overwhelming.
Perfectly-packed pre-rolls
Oftentimes, machine-packed pre-rolls are packed too tight, which can make the joint hard to pull and burn unevenly. Similarly, many pre-rolls contain low-quality bud, such as shake. However, STiX aren’t just your everyday pre-rolls. These joints contain premium whole cannabis flower and are expertly rolled by one of four industry-leading machines globally. This creates a consistently smooth delivery and even burn, as well as a strong flavor profile and potent experience. These Mai Tai x Zkittlez Cake joints had a floral and piney inhale with a light and creamy exhale. Though the flavors weren’t overly pungent, they were smooth and mild, assisting in a gentle smoke.
The nearly white-colored gray ash lent proof that we had a quality product on our hands. While the lack of coughing was a good sign that there were no shake or mids hidden beneath the wrap.
Compact, convenient, and affordable
For a price tag of around $50 for a 3.5-gram pack, TrailStix is a great choice for those looking for a premium option that won’t break the bank— especially if you’re needing a product that’s convenient and compact for any kind of adventure. Between the matches and slick packaging, this was the perfect companion for our Massachusetts trip.
“No messes. No stresses. No potency guesses. Pick up some Stix and blaze your own trail.”
