Rizla+ (commonly known as just Rizla) is a brand of rolling paper. There are different types of Rizla papers available in a range of thicknesses, sizes and with different burn rates. They are popularly known by the color of the cover. For example papers in the blue cover are rarely called fine weight rizlas but are known as blue rizlas.
The brand was originally registered as Riz-La+ in 1866 which combined the french word for rice (from the rice paper used at the time) and an abbreviation of Lacroix, the name of family whose business had been producing the papers since 1532.
The Rizla business was acquired by Imperial Tobacco in 1997.
