**Dutchie**
The term #0excludeGlossary has a rich history rooted in cannabis culture, originating from the Netherlands, a country famed for its progressive stance on cannabis. Initially, #1excludeGlossary referred to a joint rolled with Dutch rolling papers, prized for their superior quality and even burn. The word itself is a nod to the Dutch, who have long been at the forefront of cannabis innovation. Over the years, the definition of #2excludeGlossary has broadened, now encompassing any expertly rolled joint, regardless of the paper used. This shift highlights the global impact of Dutch cannabis practices and the universal appeal of a well-rolled joint. In contemporary cannabis circles, a “Dutchie” is more than just a joint; it’s a symbol of craftsmanship and tradition. As the cannabis industry evolves, the term “Dutchie” continues to resonate with enthusiasts who appreciate the artistry of rolling and the cultural heritage it represents. [Source: Harvard, MedPub]

Etymology
From Dutch + -ie.
