Riwaka

Post by soupdragon » Fri Jun 29, 2012 12:12 pm

Hi All

I know these have been very thin on the ground of late but does anybody know of a UK stockist or when the next harvest might be available?

Cheers Tom

The 2012 NZ harvest was a couple of months ago and they're appearing on our shores now, but Riwaka are highly sought after so we might not get any over here. I've had my eye open for them for ages.

So they're in the country then? :)

I wonder how how much will be available to us mere mortals?
