Delicados versus Número 1

[Leopolis Semper Fidelis]

Could someone enlighten me as to why the Cuban factories have two different names (Delicados and Número 1) for Long Panetelas both measuring 7½" x 38?

I've never heard of the factory name Numero 1, but I think you may be referring to Laguito No. 1 which is the same size as Delicados. The difference is Laguito No. 1's have a pigtail cap (i.e. Cohiba Lanceros, Montecristo Especial No. 1) and Delicados don't (i.e. Partagas Serie du Connaisseur No.1, El Rey del Mundo Grades de Espana)

Spot on advice.

I have a listing of factory names here and I show the pigtail cigars with a "T" after their common name.
