Does anybody know the difference between the Camacho Corojo Monarca and the Diploma? They seem to be the same size (5x50), but there is a big difference in price. Why?

Sorry I forgot the A. I'm a little tired.

The Diploma uses the best leaves of the tobacco plant and it made entirely of Corojo tobacco. X

The Diploma, 11/18, Liberty (rare and working on extinction), and the new SLR have significantly more flavor, body, and strength over the regular corojo/havana line. The only one I think comes close from the regular line are the Figurados. Burned an SLR last night instead of the ERDM Llaneza maddie, and was very well satisfied at this new offering. Nice change of pace, but I don't think I'd buy a box--would rather spend it on Joya Antanos or FD Ligero. With that said, I'll keep a few on hand to change the pace from time to time.
