Try MHB I got some from him before Christmas.

^^^ Agree with this - Mark (from Marks Home Brew - MHB member name on here) had heaps of this not long ago at a fair price, if you are really after some give him a call and I am sure he will post you some.

Does anyone know where to get this odd herb in Australia? I'm planning on brewing a delerium tremens clone but can't find this crucial ingredient anywhere.

I have made gin with and without grains of paradise and honestly I don't see why we are making the effort to source this fairly obscure ingredient that is difficult to get hold off and it's easy to substitute. I think because it is used on the original Bombay Sapphire gin it became "desirable" to use and found itself in many gin recipes but in reality you can just use more pepper, Szechuan pepper, coriander and other botanicals as a substitute and still produce a great gin and you can also produce a gin that is just like Bombay without it too if that is what you are trying to achieve.

My opinion is that I really would not bother and stick to more botanicals that are easy to source and Australian grown where possible.
