I think I saw a few guys here mention they like these. I’m enjoying one now. It’s creamy, very mild, really nice. There is something there I can’t put my finger on…maybe a little sweetness? Either way I would definitely get this one again. |

Haven’t touched a Torano made in the last 8 years.
Still have some old ones, not many though. |

Haven't smoked that one yet and have yet to find a torano I really liked. Have a few Decadencias resting and a few others. |

^ the old tubo Maduros were great. |

I bought some about 10 years ago. Can’t remember the line, but IIRC they were robies. It’s whatever CBid was selling at the time. Absolutely, some of the crappiest cigars I smoked. Smoked a few. Let them rest a couple years and tried them again. Still turds. Tasted like crude oil mixed with horse****. None of them burned worth a crap either. Ended up sending the leftovers to the sandbox. |

I used to like the Signature Series. They were Maduro. Had a unique flavor, but I can see how it wouldn't have been to everyone's taste. I don't think they make those anymore.
The only recent lines I've tried are the Exodus and Exodus 50 Years. The regular Exodus are better, IMO. Not great, but serviceable. I smoke them as a second cigar of the day if I have a second. Never had a Casa Toraño. |

Don't load up on anything just yet if you are starting out...you won't believe how much your tastes change if you stay with this for a while. |

When I was just getting into this, liked the Signature and the Exodus 1959. The Casa Torano was a bit to light for me but I kept buying the Sigs and the 1959.
Looks like you can get the 1959 in some sizes at CI for about $35/5 pack (the robusto's are on back order). That Famous place has the Sigs in a variety of sizes (5 pack of robusto for about $18)
Haven't smoked a Torano for a while. Probably still have some kicking around in a tupador. Not sure on how well they age so they might be over aged by now. Might have to dig one up someday and give it a whirl.
NINE! |

Torano, Cusano and the like.
Decent yard gars.
Best buy ever was a Cusano deal many years ago.
Three Lanceros in a NICE leather case.
Cant remember the cigars, but two of them were OK.
The cigar case is awesome, white and black leather, sleeve style, very cool. |

The thing about the good Torano’s is they were never strong cigars.
The best (IMO) Torano was their Tribute Maduros, I think I have singles of the 08’ & 09’ that Lou sent me. You think they’re ready now? |

Smoked a Torano Fortress rob this morning that was probably about 9 years old or older - still nothing special. |
