I saw a thread somewhere recently that mentioned a Torano Exodus 1959 with a Gold band, and one with a Silver band. Is this true? What's the diff.?

Different Wrappers

What's the other wrapper?

Oh, yeah - you bet there are two. The gold is a little more rich a full flavor than the silver, but I love them both equally. Here's some info from torano.com:

Exodus 1959
This cigar commemorates the Exodus of expert Cuban cigar families and their impact on the cigar industry after the nationalization of all tobacco farms and cigar factories by the Cuban government in 1959. The Toraños were one of those families.

Wrapper: Habano
Binder: Honduras
Filler: Dominican Republic, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Costa Rica

Exodus Silver
The Exodus 1959 Silver Edition is a medium to full bodied cigar with complex flavors that develop hints of citrus and wood. The beautiful Criollo wrapper blends magnificently with the combination of Honduran, Mexican and Costa Rican filler.

Wrapper: Criollo
Binder: Costa Rica
Filler: Costa Rica, Honduras & Mexico

Hey DZ have you tried either?

the regular gold line has a habana2000 wrapper iirc. i like the gold exodus all right and did not care for the silver. ymmv.

I'm with Wouldy on this. I was disappointed with the Silver. I prefer Cupido's criollo wrapper.

ahhh such a beautiful example of the varied tapestry of life - one more reason why reviews are worth only so much and it all comes down to schmokin' em and deciding for yourself!

Love the Gold, just wasn't sure about the Silver. I didn't realize they were the same line.
