Afternoon,” a fundraiser at the Greene’s fabulous Flora Farm on Sunday, November 8,

The Los Cabos Humane Society continues to benefit from everyone’s generous gifts and
donations. Since the inception of the CARE and the Cabo San Lucas Humane Society
merger in June of 2009,  the society continues making a much needed difference. We are
working diligently to improve the quality of the lives of those who can’t speak for
themselves and for everyone in our Los Cabos community. This culinary event enables
the society to continue reducing the number of animals through adoption, spay and
neutering, and rescue.

• Special guest judges, Troy Chandler from Bonsai Bistro in Coeur D’Alene, Idaho
and Rusty Staub, legendary New York Met baseball player join local celebrity
judges to assess the restaurants in 5 different categories. These categories are:
Best Use of Local Ingredients, Best Plate Presentation, Best Prepared Dish, Most
Original Concept and Best Booth.

Special Guest Ursula Hermacinscki, well known Auctioneer who has been
involved with Wine auctions and fundraisers throughout Napa Valley and Aspen
will be present.

Partida Jazzes Things Up at Tales of the Cocktail in New Orleans

Every July, the crème de la crème of the spirits world unites in New Orleans for five days of tasting, learning, meeting and fun at Tales of the Cocktail. Partida Tequila was front and center this year for the world-famous five-day foray into the growing cocktail culture.

Partida Spirit Bird tattoos were spotted all over town: on arms, necks, feet, legs, chests and even heads! Partida Tequila was also present at parties, dinners and seminars, for both educational and cocktail events.

Partida Tequila was also featured at a great seminar called “Agavepalooza,” which was led by Steve Olson of the BAR team. Attendees were provided the opportunity to learn about fine tequila and mezcal and even taste a piece of agave.

Partida Tequila Director of Brand Development Dave Singh was all around Tales, putting on tattoos, tasting writers on the various Partida marques and meeting new faces. Partida Brand Ambassador Jacques Bezuidenhout mixed delicious cocktails for a ‘spirited’ pairing dinner at the luxurious W Hotel and handed out Partida Spirit Bird tattoos to all. Tales 2009 was a fantastic time and Partida Tequila is looking forward to a great presence next year in New Orleans
