Very simply...there's nothing too terribly wrong with this smoke to make it 'bad,' per se, but then, there's not much right with it to make it 'good' either.
On the plus side, it has a decent room not, non-offensive (though not as attractive as other vanilla aromatics). Also, you could puff on this like there's no tomorrow without fear of tongue bite.
On the down side, there is NO complexity to this very mild smoke. I find the early bowl, mid bowl, late bowl, and all the little steps in between to taste exactly the same.
Perhaps the name is fitting...if you're not looking for a strong smoke to put you bed (ala night cap) and are more interested in a very light, mild, "background" taste to ease off to bed (or perhaps into a slow-paced weekend afternoon) this couldn't be too bad.
Personally, there are many better choices out there to fit my tastes. Still, its "not bad" enough to be worth a small sample.

I am very new to pipe smoking and I took it up initially to help get over my cigarette addiction. This was the first tobacco I bought and needless to say I continued to smoke cigs because this had no nicotine to help me. After I found this site, I realized I needed something stronger and it was Nightcap that did the trick. But...This tobacco fortunately did not discourage me from continuing to smoke a pipe even though it could have. I found the flavor to be mild and satisfying at the time but I was waking up the next day with a very sore throat and this was almost the deal breaker for me as a pipe smoker. Fortunately, I went on to try other tobaccos and they did not have the same effect on me and I quickly realized there are many more enjoyable tobacs on the market. Even though it might have just been an allergic reaction to the casing on this stuff, I cannot give it a very good review because of the number of better blends that I have found since. But also because it was my first blend and obviously didn't keep me from pursuing this wonderful past time, I don't want to be too hard on it either.

A bland smoke. On the plus side, I don't think it would bite you if you put your tongue in the bowl. After 3 bowls I used the remainder as a blend to cut the edge of some tobaccos I have that are tasty too bitey. It worked well for that purpose.

I can see where this might be good as a blender. It lacks the character to be able to stand alone. Mild, sweet, sticky, and biteless, it is yet another in a crowded field of cased black Cavendish blends.

Bought this under the Tinderbox brand Midnight. VERY moist and sticky out of the bag. I made the mistake of buying 8oz. The only saving grace for this blend I found was to mix 50/50 with J.F. Germain 1820 Mixture and found it to be an exceptional morning type smoke. Added just the right sweetness to that english. Had a great room note that smelled exactly like waffles. Wouldn't by it for that alone though, but I do find I smoke this blend of blends quite often. 4 out of 10

Basically, Midnight Smoke by Altadis is vanilla black cavendish much like Lane's BCA except much milder. This tobacco strikes me as being something to smoke when your only concern is room note. There is no tobacco flavor to be found in this blend. It's mildly sweet without a bite. If you're looking for a crowd pleaser, pick up a pouch of this. However, it's not likely going to do much for you after the party is over.
