A brand of rolling paper, actually called RizLa+ (ree-la-crwa). The name comes from 'Riz', the French word for
rice, and Lacroix, meaning 'The cross'.
'Riz' comes from the fact that the paper is made from
rice, and 'Lacroix' is the surname of its creator, Pierre de Lacroix. The paper was originally intended for rolling tobacco but is much more widely used by
marijuana smokers today.
