Semantics that depend on the country.
In Cuba and the DR - volado is the name of the lowest priming groups. In Central American countries, seco is the name given to the lowest priming.
Cuba/DR - top down: ligero, seco, volado
Nicarauga, Honduras, etc - top down: ligero, viso, seco
Not every Central American cigar has seco in it. In fact many don't.
There are less island cigars that lack volado, but they do exist.
