Midnight Special RYO Tobacco review


Midnight special is one of my favorite ryo tobaccos. Its a value priced fine cut tobacco that is a mix of domestic and imported tobacco. Some people say its harsh, but it isnt from what I have noticed. Its priced at under 2 dollars for a small pouch that will roll around 20 cigarettes. It has a great smelling aroma, much different from a factory made cigarette, and even different than other ryo tobacco. It has a unique rich taste to it. The rolling papers it comes with work just fine and burn well. The tobacco burns even and smooth. Id take Midnight Special over many more expensive brands, and its one of my favorites.

I smoke Midnight Spicial myself, unfiltered. I roll it with a Zig Zag hand machine. The machine costs about $3.00 and will last for 5 to 6 6oz packages. After that, the rolling surface does start to stiffen.

I have tried Gambler and some of the other brands that come in a 1 pound package. They taste like floor sweepings. Midnight Special on the other hand lives up to text on the back of the package. It says it's a rich and brawny smoke. And it is. Very smooth too, unless you have been smoking lights in which case it would be rather strong and probably harsh as well, but if you have been smoking lights then you need to stick with a 'light tobacco' and not go with a full flavor variety.
