"Today all I'm smoking is Union Square."
That is a good one to be sure. Have you tried Opening Night? The reason I ask as I think it is as good or better. Both are Virginia flakes blended by C&D.

Gaslight

Escudo

Now let me get into some stuff I haven't gotten opened yet and change the list in a month. Penzance would be on the list if it weren't so damn hard to get. But I don't chase unicorns. Except Balkan Sobraine

Honorable mentions! Newminster 403 and Hellhammer. Got some samples from Deathmetal and they are great spice kickers for afternoons.
