The California Fig industry is excited to announce the excellent quality of the 2015 fresh crop across all varieties – Black Mission, Brown Turkey, Calimyrna, Kadota, Sierra and Tiger Figs. Natural, good-for-you, and tasty California Fresh Figs are available now thru December.
To celebrate the start of the season, award-winning Chef Robert Del Grande of Houston’s highly-acclaied RDG + Bar Annie created five new simple and delicious recipes that highlight the incredible flavor and versatility of California Fresh Figs.
“I really think figs are the perfect fruit. They have texture, flavor, and nutrition,” says Del Grande. “There’s also a sophistication that fresh figs bring to any dish. Elevate a cheese plate or include them as a key ingredient in salads and salsas. Just remember: When you think delicious, think figs. When you think figs, think California!”

Dans le cadre de son Tricentenaire, il était essentiel pour la Maison Martell de célébrer ses origines à Cognac, et plus particulièrement au sein du Château de Chanteloup, redécoré pour l’occasion.
Plus de 2500 viticulteurs, bouilleurs de crus et partenaires de la région ont répondu présent à l’invitation délivrée par les salariés de la Maison qui ont tenu à se mobiliser personnellement pour ces invités avec lesquels ils nouent des relations particulières. Ainsi, pendant un mois, ils ont sillonné la campagne charentaise afin de leur remettre en main propre ces invitations.
« Cette année est une grande année pour la Maison Martell, qui fête 3 siècles d’existence et de relations avec ces hommes et ces femmes de Cognac. Nous avions à cœur de convier pour cette célébration l’ensemble de nos partenaires locaux avec lesquels nous créons des liens privilégiés depuis près de dix générations – et nous l’espérons, pour les générations à venir » déclare César Giron, Président de la Maison Martell.

As hundreds of admiring fans bid Wilmer Valderrama an enthusiastic farewell as he headed to the airport in Brownsville, Texas, it was clear this is a passionate community filled with people who are proud of their home, heritage and stories. Johnnie Walker joined forces with Valderrama, celebrated actor, director and activist, to travel to the U.S.-Mexico border to showcase the stories of Americans raised in close proximity to the border and the impact of cross-cultural influences on their personal progress.
This journey to the U.S.-Mexico border was part of Johnnie Walker’s new campaign, Keep Walking America, which celebrates the cultural progress and diversity that is shaping the new face of America today. While on the border, Valderrama got up close and personal with the people and places that define this iconic border town. He walked the fence-line of the border along the Rio Grande, witnessed the daily ebb and flow of people crossing the International Bridge, and spoke with several hometown heroes to learn about their dreams, struggles and stories of personal progress.
