I am also new to cigars, and all the cigars you listed that I have tried I really liked as well. I also really dig Rocky Patel Signature, Carlos Torano Exodus, and Gurkha Regent, give those a shot.

Since you liked the 1992 I'd give the Padron Londres a shot. They're a smaller cigar but they pack a lot of flavor, and they're under $3 a stick.

thanks for all the ideas. that definitely narrows down the field of what to try next, I'll try the padron for sure.
