Greetings from Eastern Washington State from an ex-Californian (was born in San Jose)!
Everyone here will recommend the Newbie Sampler, as it's an easy way to broaden your horizons, and I just went that route myself. You cannot go wrong with it.
As for a sampler/humidor package, I'm not sure anyone here has/does anything like that, but using a coolidor is another storage option. That's what I have, it's really inexpensive to assemble, and you can store a ton of smokes in it. I recommend a monster Igloo if you choose to go that route.
Welcome to it, and enjoy your stay.
