“Christmas” in Albuquerque is a daily occurrence. You do not have to wait until December to experience the delicious flavors of red and green everywhere you turn. For hundreds of years, New Mexicans have perfected the art of growing chiles from our rocky, rugged soil. Understanding the unique landscape has given our chile a famous flavor you cannot find anywhere else. Green chile has become our state’s icon and a culinary treasure beloved by food connoisseurs around the world.
