    Looks like a Chateau Maduro. The regular Chateau is much lighter and I believe the Sun Grown Chateau has a black band on the bottom.

    This should help you out ......

    kuzi16:
    Reserva has green on the bottom of the band
    Sungrown is black on the botom of the band with a black ribbon
    Shade grown is green on the botom of the band with a green ribbon
    Anejo has a cream bottom and a red band and also says anejo
    Don Carlos has black on the botom of the band and no ribbon
    the hemmingway is the only one that is confusing. it has the same set up as the Don Carlos, but they are all a perfecto vitola of various sizes.

    Thats what I was looking for. Thanks... But now I'm even more confused.. According to this I would have the Conn. Shade wrapper. The wrapper on mine is really dark.

    Well, it was shade-grown. It's dark in the shade. Even in Connecticut.

    Just look down it's not the shade in Conn. It's the shade of the chosen one. All Hail The Beard!

    I don't understand why AF doesn't come out with some better distinguishable labels.
