    In this month's catalog, they do not mention "gold," though in all fairness, they did in the last one.

    I think they're confusing people. There is no Exodus 1959 Gold line. They label the Exodus 1959 as such. It's used as proof on a forum argument. We convince them to retract the article. No Torano was ever flushed down the toilet to make a prisoner talk. Torano smokers the world over stop the riots. We live in peace for all eternity. The End.

    Here I was hoping that Torano had launched a new line of cigars. Alas, 'twas not to be.

    once again, my opinion.....no doubt an unpopular one with you and george...so please don't point out what an a$$hole I am for saying so....we have been through it all before.

    Thanks.

    How the hell did I get dragged into your post? I didn't say anything other than my opinion - just like you did.. How does that make it unpopular with "george and CC"??? There were three others that also voted they had no idea what SFG was talking about.

    BTW Scotty - I don't get how you have a victory from this thread. I wouldn't view this vote count as anything other than a neutral response - 5 yes, 5 no, 5 don't care. Where is your landslide?

    And I agree with several posts about the use of "gold" and "silver" in the descriptions. I recently had a "silver" exodus, and really enjoyed it. If I were to post a review, I would make that distinction to others so there wouldn't be any confusion about which cigar I was smoking. I wouldn't have thought it was that much better than the gold. There is definitely a difference between the two...

    Now, through this thread, the ones participating and viewing it know there is a "Torano Exodus 1959" (the gold band) and the "Torano Exodus 1959 Silver". I knew the two existed, but was not familiar with the formal naming of the cigars by the Torano family. I do now....

    Not to threadjack this, but can you believe Newsweek? People are being killed over that article and they're like, "Oops, sorry. Our story may not be entirely true." They seriously need to be held accountable for their actions.

    At Newsweek's expense, I say we send Newsweek magazines over to the Arab countries and permit them to rip out the pages and flush them down the toilet!!!

    Yes you stated your opinion AND you certainly were "crying" You whined and this is exactly what you said:
    I had no idea and i think this is just another reason for certain members to argue based on past grudges rather than the real issue at hand.
    So once you stop whining and crying, I'll stop posting replies like this to your whining

    It might build some good will since it'd probably be a step up from what they wipe with right now.

    You Know all this drama could have been solved by one simple Suggestion. Take a pictuer of every cigar you smoke and want to write a review about with the band, labels and box. Then post it with the revue, situation solved.
