Unless you specify that you want to bum a ‘store rolled’ cigarette from your buddy, you’re likely to be offered a Band-Aid® box filled with hand rolls. At $7 a pack, smokers in Maine roll for an hour or so after supper every night.

In the early 60's my wife and I used to "roll our own" with a "ready roll machine" and we used what the hunkys called "bugga" a tobacco so strong that it was used both for chewing and pipe smoking by the Poles, Chechs, hunkys etal.

Rolling your own was the preferred method by most Americans until the late 20s and then they switched because smokes were so cheap {before taxes of any kind}.

“’store rolled’”

Or ‘tailor made’ is the common expression...

Glad I saw your post because I thought this was about rolling reefers.
