I emailed these guys yesterday and asked them to add Ireland as a ship to country. They seem to have almost any variety you might want in varying quantities. Shipping shown below. Was going to give them a try, will let you know how I get on. Has any body any experience getting hops from US regarding taxes or duties.

They'll only ship pellets

QuoteNo international Shipping on Leaf (Custom Regulations)
Leaf hops are more bulky,  thus the weights have been adjusted to give accurate shipping quotes.

Also, they out of stock on most of the 'interesting' varieties + don't forget about customs ...

Just to update i placed an order on friday 1st of November and it arrived yesterday. The total order weight was 1.5 kg. Hops bought included Ahtanum,  NZ Nelson Sauvin, NZ Motueka, Citra Hops 2013 CROP,  Cascade, Centennial, Chinook and Columbus. Paid by paypal so total came to €68.23. No sign of any additional charges from customs yet but will update if they arrive. This looks like a good option for getting small amounts of pellet hops which can otherwise be awkward to get or overly expensive here. I priced the same order from other sources and it worked out more expensive and everything i wanted wasn't available in pellet.

Was it only the Citra that was 2013 crop?

Brew_for_Buttons

Only the citra when i put the order in but they are updating their domestic pellets at the moment. I just put in a small order for a variety to see what they were like to buy from.
They have more 2013 stock up now.

Ordered 3lbs of Centenial, Citra and Cascade all 2013 crop.
Arrived within 2 weeks and still great value for money. I don't want to replace my local supplier but needed something fresh in a hurry.

I wouldnt want to chance it on 8 kg of pellets though. Unless they dont mind marking down the value. Then Id have no issues direct shipping them here.
