There are sooooooo many cigars out there!!! And I'm talking, normal production sticks.
As said in the previous answers, sample, sample & sample some more!

You are going to find some that you like & others you don't. And as your palate matures, you will find that what you loved before you might not later.

When I first got serious I would read reviews (both "professionals" & other S/BOTL) and then try the cigar. Even just looking at the "what did you smoke today" thread and you will find others who have a similar palate. When you do, you will have a direction for your sampling. At least that worked for me.

Then when you get to storing sticks and you learn about resting & aging, things might change again!

Most important is to just try stuff!
