The PLPC’s are long-filler.

There are more than two tiers, IMHO:
Tier 1: Cohiba, Trinidad
Tier 2: Most long-fillers for export. There is a distinction within this tier, e.g., Montecristo vs. Diplomatico, but the difference in price is now negligible. The PLPC fits here.
Tier 3: The formerly hand-finished long/medium-fillers(Cuban sandwich), typically around $3-$4/each, e.g., Partagas or RyJ Mille Fleurs, and the better short-fillers, e.g., PL Montecarlo.
Tier 4: Formerly machine-made short-fillers, with Vuelta Abajo tobacco, e.g., the PL and Rafael Gonzalez panatela’s, and Quintero’s.
Tier 5: non-Vuelta Abajo short-fillers like JLP and ugh, Guantanamera’s.

As Cubans are legal here, I smoke and enjoy them all! (except the Guantanamera The PL Panatela is a favourite of mine – smokes great even after only a year of aging! Thanks for the review – nice to see these kinds of smokes getting exposure!
