If you've only been back in the "game" for six months after taking five years off, there are hundreds of new blends to try. :-)
Bob, I honestly appreciate what you said, I was just trying to explain that my plan wasn't to just go buy random boxes.....My post did come off sounding that way. I just wanted some opinions.

Right when I first started (just over a year ago) I bought a bunch of these silver and gold Exodus because I like the couple I sampled from the devil site. Now I don't like the taste as much or the draw. They are great cigars to give to people new to cigars though. I give these to buddies for poker nights and they go over great.

I got some Torano samplers when I first started smoking, I never had one good enough to buy again. I felt the same way about Alec Bradley until recently when my wife bought me one I liked. I've also never found a Rocky Patel I enjoyed very much, but I'm sure one is out there, I just gave up after 4 or 5.
I don't think it's a terrible idea to buy a box of reasonably well reviewed cigars you haven't tried if you are familiar with the brand and can get them on the cheap, but probably not Toranos.

Only one I've had is the Exodus 59 and I really liked it.

Exodus 1959 50 years are tasty. Make sure it's the 50 year though!

I'm with oooo35980. Cbid routinely has Torano samplers that go for less than 3 bucks per. No harm trying them. I went through a number of Torano samplers a few years ago. Never had a bad Torano. Never had a memorable one, either. Certainly never considered buying a box of any one.
