    Damascus Gate restaurant served them before, could ask them for source.

    It is I found that site already but £15 for 1kg plus £15.95 delivery is, pardon the pun, nuts.

    You'd be paying more per weight in a walk-in retail shop

    You could use Parcel Motel to get the delivery costs down.

    Tescos sell normal almonds at €18.95/kg, what do you think a fine food store (who operate on a 15% more margin than tescos) would sell at specialty fresh food product at?

    I bought some at a market in France last year, they were about 75c a go.
    They're a dose to open too.
