But yes, I tasted fenugreek in this cigar. Many people reported tasting caramel which is not far off fenugreek on any tasting wheel. Hope that explanation helps!
Soooooooo, why didn't you just write maple?

Because if you taste fenugreek next to maple, you can tell the difference. Just like if you taste banana flavoring next to real banana. Same with cinnamon vs. cassia. As a Le Cordon Bleu grad, I would have to give my Chef cred back if I didn't write it exactly as I tasted it.
