Popular UK hemp flower sellers Uncle Herb are back up-and-running following a police raid on their premises.
With the police investigation against the business and its sale of CBD-rich hemp flower ongoing, Uncle Herb is not the first to continue trading after being raided. Hemp Hash have been operating unbothered for many months following a police raid in mid-2019.
The fact that there is yet to be any prosecutions for sellers of low-THC hemp flower suggests that the police may not be entirely sure of its legal status. After all, the laws surrounding hemp flower aren’t 100% clear could be open to different interpretations.
Also, the motivation to enforce a crackdown on a non-psychotropic natural product that’s been used for thousands of years might not be high on the authorities’ priorities.
Or maybe they’re just waiting.

They have a statement ont her website wishing their customers a merry Christmas and that they miss them. It reads:
“As a result of the trouble we have had recently there have been a few changes, most importantly we no longer have a payment merchant and have also had to change the bank details for customers to pay by bank transfer… We know it’s an inconvenience but it’s the only way we can reopen at the moment.

“Nethertheless we hope you enjoy our massive 50% off Christmas Stock Clearance and we look forward to a fresh start and getting back to business as usual in 2020. Have a Happy Hempy Christmas.”
Thanks for posting this – just placed an order – I have never once been disappointed with anything I’ve had from Uncle Herb so I’m really pleased to see them back.
It seems as though uncle herb has gone dark. No response to messenger, Instagram or emails. My order last order never turned up. There website is acting strange, maybe there a legitimate reason for this. Can someone shed some light on this.
Says they’re on holiday on the website.
Wish somebody could clear the law up for us as we’ve been raided had 10k cash taken and been put under investigation for importation of class B and money laundering for 9oz of CBG flower with a LOQ THC reading 🤷🏻♂️ You’d think they would be more interested in hard drugs people trafficking ETC.
Clearly not, we didn’t even get the chance to lost it on the website
