Publisher Tinge World, contact: editor@tingeworld.com (Wholesale Available)
Cheeky POLYC is the retail edition of POLYC, the English-language cannabis culture quarterly from the Netherlands, made for the customer at the counter. Issue No. 01, October 2026, is the Holiday Edition, 36 A4 pages.
Inside: Field Notes from a Vintage Head, the editor's road from a coffee can in Mississippi to a coffeeshop in Amsterdam. From My Kitchen. Europe's Habit, a hash gallery. The Rosin Menu: six jars. Kit: what each thing is for. The Dab, a tasting guide. Keeping the Peace, and Pipe Care for Adults Who Never Learned. Can I Smoke Here? The Holiday Section: The Cousin You See Once a Year, The Gift of Time and Buds Among Buds. The stoner-scope, the meme of the quarter and free reader classifieds. Then the information pages: what people are choosing now, what's actually in the jar, the experiment's report card and where the surplus goes. Fiction, Budtender of the Year and Write to Us at the back.
A personalised copy adds four pages of the reader's own: their portrait as Reader of the Quarter, a Tourist Tale of a day in the city they would most like to smoke in, and their own jar with their tasting notes.
POLYC stands for many Cs: Cannabis, Culture, Community, Civil and Conviviality. For adults 18+. POLYC does not sell cannabis or promote any shop, and nothing in it is medical advice. Published by Tinge World, the Netherlands.

Tinge World is an independent publisher in Gelderland, the Netherlands, and the house behind POLYC, the English-language cannabis culture quarterly. Its list runs from collector's coloring books to novels and non-fiction, sold through shops.
