Whats your favourite wrapper

Someone asked me what those are. Hmmm, how to describe. Maybe it is because I am old school, but I'd call wrappers by colors and the progression would go something like this.

Double Claro - some might call this a candela, and it is green.
Claro - light tan wrapper, some Connecticut shade wrappers would fall here.
Natural - light brown to brown, here would be your English Market Selection and some of your Sun Grown wrappers, the wrapper on some Cubans fits here
Colorado - these have a reddish hint to the brown, Cameroon, some of the newer wrappers would fit here that might be called Corojo, Crillo and the wrapper on many Cubans fits here
sub-category is the Colorado Maduro - these are darker brown with a red hint - some Corojo, Crillo, and Habana wrappers fit here.
Maduro - these are a dark brown
sub-category is the Oscuro - these are black
