Colorado Cigarette
A Colorado cigarette is another term for marijuana,
coined by Denverites upon state legalization of the drug. Prior to state
legalization, marijuana was only available, legally, for medicinal purposes
which required a physician’s prescription.
Despite not being legal for recreational use until 2014, marijuana
consumption was ubiquitous—being consumed openly in public and social areas.
The pervasive and everyday use of marijuana in the state of Colorado is denoted
by the casual moniker, “cigarette,” signifying the longtime open use of
marijuana with impunity and its acceptance in state culture.
