I mean.... maybe? When I think tobacco fermentation, my mind usually goes to a sweeter smell kinda like pipe tobacco but maybe that’s it. I want to use the word “sour” but I don’t think that’s quite it.

I have always related tobacco fermentation with an ammonia taste of smell. I am about as far from an expert as possible, but it is my understanding cigars go through up to 4 fermentation periods with the first 2 being most prominent. Could this the odor you smell?

Yeah, a light sort of ammonia odor sounds about right.
