God, I absolutely love them (but i knew them as 'hurma'! I haven't seen them here but if I do I'll let you know. At a guess, I would try the Asian food shops around Moore Street, Mary Street etc.

Found them in Lidl however I was very disappointed as they looked very pale , small and hard compared to those from Spain. I guess these are different varieties? I ended up not buying them from Lidl therefore not sure about the taste.
