I have been looking for some time now for Riwaka hops. Used to be Falconer's Flight or Simcoe were the tough ones to get. Now it seems Riwaka is the elusive hop. Help!
 
I was hoping farmhouse would get more in, but they're saying nope. I just had a Wheat IPA that used Riwaka and Rakau hops..outstanding.
 
I remember reading that Riwaka will not be exported this year to keep up with local demand and commercial contracts. I don't remember where... possibly For The Love of Hops?

This is where I got mine. It was a little pricey, but I pulled the trigger. Since I was paying for the shipping, I added in another hop that sounded interesting.

These are a little over 3 oz packages that are totally vacuum sealed. Took about a week to receive them. Sounds like they send to the US on a fairly regular basis. Super nice, helpful folks.
