The brand consists of two ranges, the Cuban Diplomat and the Cuban Diplomat Corojo Rosado.
[edit] Cuban Diplomat
This range consists of five vitolas and is essentially the filler and binder used in the Havana Soul, but with a Connecticut shade wrapper. The combination results in a medium to full-bodied cigar. The band is red and bears an image of a tobacco field within a broad border. The cigars are packed 25 to a box.
