AF Curly Head vs AF Curly Head Deluxe?

I love the regular curly head and do not care for the deluxe.

Pardon me reviving a super ancient thread, but if the unbanded regular Curly Head gets it's short-fill tobaccos from AF super premiums, where does the medium-fill tobacco come from for the alleged lesser Curly Head Deluxe?

Since both cigars are the same blend, they get the baccy from the same source.

Yeah, from what I recall A.F. uses pretty much the same tobacco in both of them. It's all leftover stuff from rolling everything else. The difference I believe is the deluxe has a band, and the construction is a bit more refined.
