I had mine forwarded by USPS to Florida where I'm staying for a bit. Looks like it hit regional post office serving this area today. I expect I'll receive it in the next couple of days. Not a big deal since most of it was repeat but I am looking forward to the HU Dark Moor tins to try.
Based on the description I was curious about this blend and also have a few tins on the way.
Please let us know what you think when you get a chance to try it. I could only find a single review, but it was very positive.
It's all waiting for me at home...
had to run home and catch the mail lady.
1kg of Directors Cut is a thing of beauty.

Still showing in Hamburg. The gods seem to be against me on this one....
It shows "Tracking number created, Pre shipment. your shipment is on its way to a USPS facility. Sign up to get updates" . You bet your ass I did.....

Not long now though it did take around five days after that stage to actually show up in the USPS system.
Mine never went thru Hamburg, it went from Rodgau to Frankfurt before arriving in the U.S. I believe the packages must wait in a German post until there's a big enough shipment to send over, Estervals must be using the cheapest shipping method possible.
That is my speculation as well. I think the queue wait and handling time is what is taking so long. I'm also speculating increased activity from the US is causing this. My orders a year ago took around 8 to 10 days order to my doorstep.
Within Germany my order arrived in under 2 days.
Unfortunately no bulk option or sales prices and Germany adds a tax, but at least shipping was free. German law dictates prices for tobacco and they can not be sold for significantly more or less than what appears on the tax strip (within Germany). The order came with some free samples (Solani Silver Flake Blend 660, Hamburger Veermaster, DTM Gordon Pym). The order is for my usual Director's Cut but also HU Night Owl and HU 5th Anniversary which I haven't tried yet.
