The first edition of 2022 takes a closer look at sustainability and the importance of growing to produce closer to home. Inside, you will find an interview with Erik Smidt, Agricultural Counsellor of the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality of the Netherlands, discussing trade between the UAE and the Netherlands, as well as the renowned biotope at EXPO 2020 Dubai. Ina Simone and Timothy Peeters introduce us to Bôtan Distillery (the world’s first non-alcoholic distillery straight from field-to-bottle), driven by a passion for nature and flavours. Meanwhile, Chef Carlos Frunze, a champion for better food, gives us a peek into his life and what to expect at the newly launched Teible at Jameel Arts Centre.
