A one-hitter is a particularly small pipe designed for exactly one puff – hence the name ("one hit"). Little material, discreet size, quickly stowed away: the ideal companion for on the go and for anyone who wants to dose consciously.

How does a one-hitter work?

You fill a small amount into the narrow bowl end, light it, and take one puff. Because only a small amount fits, the portion is kept small from the outset. Afterwards, you tap out the remnants, and the one-hitter is ready to use again.

The advantages

  • Dosed – precisely one small portion per fill.
  • Discreet – compact and inconspicuous.
  • Economical – no material is "incidentally" burned.
  • Practical for on the go – fits in any pocket.

One-hitter or Chillum?

Both are small and waterless. The one-hitter is consistently designed for a mini-portion, while the chillum holds a little more and is intended for one or two puffs. If you want to consume consciously little, the one-hitter is the right choice.

Frequently asked questions

Is a one-hitter good for beginners?
Yes, precisely because of the small portion, it allows for good and controlled dosing.

How do I clean a one-hitter?
Tap out remnants and regularly soak it in cleaning solution – otherwise, the narrow channel will quickly clog.

What is the best material for a one-hitter?
Glass is tasteless and easy to clean. However, they are also available in metal.
