The "La Verite" is the uber-premium release, on par in price and (supposedly) quality with the Padron 40/80/45th.

The "L'Espirit de Verite" is a cheaper version of the stick using tobacco from the same crop (I think the cheapest one will still be like $12, though).

Pete's idea with these is that they will be a true vintage cigar (like wine)--meaning each year cigars will be released from the tobacco cultivated that previous year (same farm). So each version/year of the Verite will be a bit different, in theory (just like wine). Since the tobacco is so young, they should improve a lot with age as well.
