Hemper Box Review
Monthly Subscription Box Of Smoking Essentials
Whether you prefer to roll a joint or pack a bong, this box has you covered.
Our reviewerA Well-Curated Kit, Best Suited to Beginners
Hemper bills itself as a premium monthly subscription for smoking essentials, and the June Glassentials box backs that up. It arrived in a discreet shipping bag that gave nothing away, packed securely enough that nothing inside had room to break.
Inside was a genuinely broad kit: fifty RAW rolling papers, a booklet of chlorine-free Zen tips, a reusable glass joint tip, a refillable 'cookies' lighter with a removable packing tool, organic beeswax hemp wick, a rolling tray, a small glass water pipe with a bowl, and a pack of alcohol wipes for cleanup.
Two pieces stood out. The reusable glass tip made rolling noticeably easier and kept resin off our hands and mouth — useful both solo and when sharing a joint. The water pipe, at about six inches tall, felt well made for its size, and its splash catcher kept water out of our mouth while concentrating the hit.
The catch is that a regular smoker likely already owns several of these pieces — papers, a lighter, a rolling tray, tips. That makes the box a stronger fit for someone just building their kit than for an experienced smoker restocking basics.

Our Hands-On Review
The glass tip was the first thing we tried, and it made rolling meaningfully easier — the mouthpiece end held its shape without needing especially delicate hands, and smoking through it kept resin off our lips. Afterward, one of Hemper's included alcohol wipes cleaned it for next time.
The water pipe was the other highlight: about six inches tall, sturdy for its size, with a splash catcher that kept water out of our mouth while still delivering a concentrated hit.
Built With Sharing In Mind
The glass tip lets you give each person their own mouthpiece on a shared joint instead of passing it mouth to mouth — a small touch worth mentioning.

A Strong Starter Kit for New Smokers
The Hemper Glassentials box is well-packed and includes two genuinely impressive pieces in the water pipe and glass tip — just know a regular smoker may already own a few of the smaller extras.
