These are my favorite papers ever, so thin you can see through them and stronger then any other paper I have seen. There is no taste from them. A good test to determine ash residue, which equals burn taste, is to light a paper by itself and let go at the end and see how much ash is left over, elements virtually nothing is left, while zig zag orange, for example you see the whole sheet of paper in ash. Try it, you’ll agree. Elements are a way cleaner burn.
