      Saturday, 17 Jan 2009 - 11:44 UTC

      Coffee from ‘La Golondrina’, Popayan, Colombia
      Stroganoff and mouldy, like a hot summer night.
      Carrot peel and raisin bread, mushroom farms and sloppy joe’s
      Diapers and kiwi fruit: fresh, tart, light.

      ‘Humore’ from Byumba, the volcanoes of Rwanda
      Sweet Gorgonzola, grapes and peaches, nutty,roast
      Sunshine on hot plastic toys, chocolate and cinnamon
      Grapefruit and buttery, apricots and toast.

      ‘Tegu’ from Nyeri in the shadow of Mount Kenya
      Red wine and cranberries, sour cream and tyres
      Cherries in the green wood, lemon grass, molasses
      Champagne, pork and marmalade, the scent of smoky fires.
