Not quite the first kiss story you might have imagined, Shivram Gopinath reads a letter he wrote to the famous American chocolatier, Milton Hershey. In this recollection, a familiar taste evokes flavours of memory, identity, and culture.

Shivram Gopinath is a writer, spoken word performer, and twice-winning Singapore National Poetry Slam Champion. His poetry has been heard at the Singapore Writers Festival, Borobudur Writers and Cultural Festival, and Jaipur Literary Festival among others.
