The paper is pressed exceptionally fine and finished with natural gum arabic, giving a clean seal and very little paper taste on the draw. The Connoisseur format puts 32 king size slim leaves and 32 pre-cut tips into the same booklet, so there is nothing else to buy. A full box carries 32 booklets — eight more than the RAW and Elements Connoisseur boxes, which is worth noting when you compare the per-booklet cost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAstro's Take\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt Astro Vapes, OCB is the brand that sells to the people who have already tried everything else. It does not have RAW's recognition and it never will, but the customers who use it are specific about it and they are not price shopping. The paper genuinely is thinner than most, and the gum arabic seals more reliably than some of the natural tree gums when the weather is warm — a small thing that regulars notice. The 32-booklet box is also quietly the best value of the Connoisseur packs once you divide it out. Very high quality for the price, and a sensible third brand to carry once RAW and Elements are moving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrand: OCB\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRange: Black Premium Connoisseur\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: King Size Slim\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeaves Per Booklet: 32\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTips Per Booklet: 32 pre-cut tips\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBooklets Per Box: 32\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTotal Papers Per Box: 1,024\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTotal Tips Per Box: 1,024\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePaper Type: Ultra thin premium paper\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGum: Natural gum arabic\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrigin: Made in France\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAge Restriction: 18+ only\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Buy from Astro\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAstro Vapes supplies only genuine OCB products, sourced through trusted UK suppliers and delivered factory-sealed.
