Sometimes I need a mixture,Sometimes even looking for specific flavors that highlight the mixture, and now I need something low frequency and one-dimensional to meet the nicotine needs, and Opening Night does that.
I'm now taking him from bowl to bowl, looking for a suitable home for him,good stuff!
Note: When you open the tin, there are two beautiful rabbit ears. It is very ritualistic

I can't add much to what the brothers have written about this great Virginia flake. It, along with GLP Union Square are now my exclusive flakes. I'll just say this: Opening Night has every good quality of all the best Virginia flakes with none of the troublesome qualities. It packs and burns well, it won't bite unless you really push, it has a mild/medium nic level _and_ full flavor. And you can't really beat the price. I'm not an all day smoker but, if I were, this would be the flake I reached for. My only complaint is that I try to limit myself to two bowls a night and Opening Night always leaves me wanting another.

Not that different from Union Square, which is not necessarily bad. There is nothing that sticks out, rendering this blend rather unremarkable. Which is also not necessarily bad. 2 and a half for this American VA.
