The Official Air Korda Coffee Travel Set, (Limited Edition 1 of 72)
As carried by Lisle Korda during the events surrounding The Phoenician Scheme
An American Empirical Picture by Wes Anderson
Issued under provisional clearance from the Air Korda Executive Utilities Division, this travel set was constructed to meet the personal requirements of Lisle Korda, daughter of international financier and intermittent fugitive Zsa-Zsa Korda.
Field reports suggest that Lisle traveled with this case during her attempted detour through a restricted economic zone bordering the Suez Peninsula. Whether the case’s contents were used for diplomatic purposes or simply to make coffee en route remains undocumented.
The set includes:
-
One 250g bag of Ethiopia Shoondhisa – Suke Drying Station coffee
- (see: sealed item 1A, highland origin, post-fermentation integrity intact)
-
One ceramic Air Korda-issued Acme cup with matching Acme saucer
- (serial-stamped, glazed; breakable but emotionally durable)
-
One map of speculative trade routes and known coordinates
- (overlayed with markings linked to The Phoenician Scheme and its lesser-known coffee holdings)
-
One provisional passport
- (used for clearance at customs counters, border kiosks, or internal tasting rooms—valid nowhere, but convincing in most lighting)
-
One Air Korda issued pencil
- 0.5mm lead, the pencil includes a hidden compartment containing an unsharpened opinion)
-
One pencil sharpener
- housed in a removable cotton sleeve labeled “emergency use only”)
All items are encased in a structured, multi-pocketed satchel, hand-numbered and lined with a material described in the manifest as “aviation fabric, repurposed.”
A note affixed to the interior flap, possibly handwritten by Zsa-Zsa himself, reads only:
