Mostly torches can be found inside houses, in cupboards, barrels, chests - yes, I know these are strange places to hide a flaming torch but anyhow... if You collect a torch, You will be able to carry it on (still burining) by Your side and it will never go out. Still I would highly recommend to brew Yourself a cat potion :)

What makes you think the torches are stored still burning? Where do you store a torch in your house. A draw or cupboard seems reasonable since you usually grab it to go outside with.

Anyway IIRC they are random. They also burn out after a while. Also there was a problem theat Geralt would keep putting the torcha way after a short time. Frustrating early in the game when you had no cat potion available.
