Earthy Rollens: India’s First Homegrown Medicinal Hemp Cigarettes

Samyukhtha Sunil

As a nation, India has had a polarised view of cannabis. It is, however, believed that India’s tryst with the sacred plant dates back to over 2000 years ago. An ancient medicinal practice also incorporated cannabis as an effective treatment for respiratory and digestive ailments. In the centuries that followed, India’s relationship with cannabis has witnessed dramatic shifts.

In a time and age where ancient healing and wellness practises are making a promising comeback, innovators in India are digging into the country’s culturally rooted medical past to create products that offer the best of the past and the future.

With a mission to reimagine holistic and slow living, homegrown brand The Trost has made remarkable strides towards transforming the public perception of cannabis and its medicinal use.

Smoke Therapy

This traditional science is renowned for its research and development towards understanding the medicinal properties of cannabis in order to create products that aid several physical and mental ailments. The practice involves using cannabis smoke sticks to treat discomforts and can only be administered by the source upon the possession of a license.

In this regard, The Trost happens to be India’s very first brand to receive an Ayurvedic license to prescribe smoke therapy for de-addiction and for treating respiratory ailments such as asthma and dyspnea.

Earthy Rollens

Having established their footing in the hemp industry with a wide range of wellness and dietary products, Trost has achieved a breakthrough innovation with Earthy Rollens. These hemp smoke sticks are the first of their kind to enter the Indian market for medical use and are India’s first smokable stick with cannabis leaf extract and are available in two variants; The Woody Rollen and The Earthy Rollen.

The product can be purchased on Trost’s website, but only if the consumer produces a prescription for any of the ailments that the Rollens can cure. In case one does not have a prescription, the brand connects the user to a certified Ayurvedic doctor who will be best able to assist them and prescribe the right product based on their symptoms.
