Finding Piment d'Espelette in NYC

Recommended Posts

I've seen pimenton de La Vera at Despaña, Sur la Table, Williams Sonoma, Zabar's and some of the spice shops like Aphrodisia on Bleecker St. in New York as well as at latienda.com, but not piment d'Espelette.

Online sources for piment d'Espelette are chefshop.com and zingermans.com

Some friends who sell sheep milk cheese and do some selling of lamb meat were searching for some pimenton d'espellette to make merguez. Tried every spice shop in NYC without luck and spoke with a wholesaler of French products in NJ. Apparently a bit of it was held up in customs somewhere and combined with what was apparently a low crop of the peppers this year, made availability very difficult. This was a couple of weeks ago; don't know what the current situation is.
