I thought I would start a new thread about these. Both of these came in today at Draper's in DC. They are doing mail order on these, but I don't know if their is a box minimum or anything.
I smoked a La Riqueza #5 today, which is a minuto, same size as a Party Short. It was very good and had a nice sweetness in the wrapper, but definitley need some humi time. They are all box pressed, but apprently as a little thank you to Draper's Pete sent a few cabs of the #5 which are not box presed.
The Cab Maduros have a funny story. Matt, one of the guys who works at Draper's hates Ecuadorian wrappers and suggested that Pete put the same CT Broadleaf as the La Riqueza on the Cabaiguan blend. So anyways 100 of the 300 boxes are going to Draper's.
As far as prices they are all about $8-10 . I bought one of each La Riqueza #1-4 and 2 of the un boxpressed #5 and 1 of each Cab Maduro and it was $73 and change
