Probably a long shot but i'm planning a white beer recipe and i've a hankering to use Sorachi Ace hops....(not a hope without importing from the US at a huge markup or buying 5+ Kg from CF :( )

Not usually until late November, early December not sure about Sorachi though as its very sought after. I may be able to help when the crop comes in but I will have to ask a friend very, very nicely if he can spare a little bit.
