Default cigar wrappers?

I am looking for info on cigars wrapper tastes and the differences between the various wrappers.

For example: What is the taste profile of an Ecuadoran Sumatra wrapper. If someone tell me that such and such cigar has a wrapper like that what does it tell me. What tastes come from tobacco grown in Ecuador that I might not find in other countries? What does the tobacco's seed origin of Sumatra tell me about that tobacco?

I am looking for a website or posting that might breakdown that kind of info for me. I know that by smoking more and more I might slowly taste the differences. I am trying to get a better general knowledge of tobacco and how their seed origin and the country that they are grown in effect the tobacco's taste. That way when I am out shopping I will have a good idea of what a cigar might taste like before I buy it.

Thanks for any help you guys can give me.
