Atabey Duendes Torpedo

Atabey Duendes Torpedo: the cold draw brings scents of hay to the nose. Once lit, the first few puffs are elegant and sweet.

Atabey Duendes Torpedo

The first third is all about wood and pink pepper, with some herbs in the aftertaste, together with a hint of nutmeg. The strength is mild (2/5).

In the second third, the smoke becomes creamier, and the flavor profile turns to hazelnut, coffee, and wood. The pink pepper is still perceivable. The strength is now mild to medium (2.5/5).

Nothing is changing in the last third neither in terms of strength nor flavors.

Overall, the Atabey Duendes Torpedo delivers an elegant smoke. The cigar is well-balanced, and the flavor profile is best enjoyed in the morning, with a clean palate. The evolution is perceivable between the first two-thirds, and then the aromas do not change till the end of the smoke.
