ive searched the archieves but cant find the link distinguishing the differences between the silver and the gold label Toranos.....

http://www.torano.com  and all your questions will be answered.

Wrapper on the Gold is Habano, on the Silver is a criollo ... different tobaccos are also used in the filler and the binder of each ...

They are as different from one another as if they were from different manufacturers ... pick up at least a 5-pack of each and give 'em a try ... that's really the only way you can ever know how they compare for your own individual taste profile

thanks guys! ive tried each, but found the gold label to be my favorite.

Silver: straight tobacco flavor with a touch of cedar.
Gold: starts with cedar, ends with 'wow, that's cocoa!'. It took me a long time to get around to trying these. I'm kicking myself for waiting so long.
