Montenegro Tamagoyaki

My first impression of this cigar was of a slight vegetal taste with a peppery note, starting with white then transitioning to black.

The cigar itself is nicely box-pressed, measuring 5 x 54, and features a distinctive black foot band that reminded me of nori, much like the Tamago depicted on the top band. I detected hints of dried apricots in the aroma.

Unfortunately, the smoke output was a bit laboured, requiring more effort than I typically like. While the apricot flavour was pronounced, it was overwhelmed by the pepper, making the overall flavour profile less enjoyable for me. I ended up giving up on the cigar at about the 40-minute mark.
