When a cigar manufacturer makes an imperfect cigar, they are classified as seconds. The imperfections are usually very slight, such as a veiny or discolored wrapper. Most of the time the imperfections are so slight that only a trained eye would notice. Since factories don't intentionally produce seconds, the supply on some sizes is limited.

Private Stock Long Fillers are made in the same Davidoff Factory where they produce the Zino’s, Avo’s and The Griffins. The only difference between the Private Stocks and the more expensive smokes are that these were not inspected for grading.   But from a company as prestigious as Davidoff, you’ll get a top quality cigar, but at a more budget-minded price!
