A map of the middlest of Dante's divine comedies. This mountain finishes the Trifecta of Heaven and Hell, giving us a path from the Inferno to Paradiso.

ABOUT THE IDEA
Information is more fun to read when it's beautiful. I've designed these charts and maps with hours of research, reassembling data into a brain-friendly aesthetic. I edit the information significantly, avoiding the "dazzle" effect which occurs when our eyes are battered with too much information. Letterpress makes it even more gorgeous.

ABOUT LETTERPRESS PRINTING
Letterpress is a very complicated and expensive printing method that I am obsessed with. All letterpress prints are slammed with 600 pounds of pressure, creating a deep, tactile texture. The ink gets embedded into the thick soft paper so it won't fade within your lifetime. Read more about letterpress printing here.

Ever wanted a very quick lesson in Herbalism? This is it! Clare Kritter and I chose a great starter-set of herbs and distilled their uses into a night and tight reference.

Follow these instructions to get the most out of your concoctions.

How to make a medicinal cup of tea: steep 1 tablespoon herb per cup of water. Cover, and let sit for 15-30 minutes. If you're using roots or bark, let sit overnight. Strain and enjoy!

How to make a folk method tincture: fill a jar with as much herb as you can leaving space on top. Fill the jar with 80+ proof alcohol until the herbs are completely covered. Close tightly and place in a cool, dark area. Let sit for 2-6 weeks. Strain and bottle. Typical tincture dose: 1-2ml, 3 times a day (this varies depending on the herb).

How to make a vinegar infusion: follow the same steps as a tincture, only using vinegar instead of alcohol. Just be sure to put wax paper between the lid and the vinegar. This method works well for mineral-rich herbs.

How to make an infused oil: follow the same steps as a tincture only use oil of choice instead of alcohol. Or, place the herbs in an oven-safe pan and cover with oil. Place in the oven at 200° for 2 hours. Remove from heat and let cool. Strain and bottle. Tip: oils are easier to make with dried herbs over fresh ones.

Frozen Desserts are so friggin' good. So good that we have innovated the hell out of them, and fascinating variations have popped-up all over the world. My favorite new thing falls somewhere in the asian shaved-ice category called Bing Bao. It's literally like eating snow.

As with coffee, meditation is something we bonded over early in our relationship. It seemed a little odd, at first—the idea of a coffee company making a meditation chart. But it felt less so when we connected that mindfulness and existing in the present were at the heart, if not the foundation, of starting Canyon. Casey (owner) illustrated this chart in early 2019, and when friends began asking for their own copies, we teamed up with our letterpress partner in Los Angeles to make prints.

This is something I've found fascinating for a long time. I once had a cat that got spooked by a dog and gashed my palm, creating an ominous scar across my Lifeline. Erp! Maybe it's my Heartline? Compare and contrast!

I think good sushi is the most perfect food. The only problem is that there is never the "right amount" of sushi. It's either too much or too little. You know what I mean? Like if I go to a Sushi restaurant and I feel nervous that I'm spending too much money, I won't eat enough and I'll need a slice of pizza later. But if I go crazy, I get so full of sushi that I'm bogged down by a rice overdose.

The best sushi Ive ever had has been in Japan (unsurprisingly), literally anywhere. 7-11, a subway station, the fish market, a fancy omokase, it's all amazing.

The chart here explains the English and Japanese name of each fish, what's so special about them, its sustainability, and some other surprising/interesting facts that will affect how you think about Sushi.

Every time I approach the butcher counter at the supermarket, I have a brief moment of panic: I don't know the difference between a T-Bone, a Porterhouse, a Sirloin or a Flank. I think I can guess, but I almost always close my eyes and choose whatever's on sale. What questions should I ask? What am I really looking for? This map breaks down the 20 most popular cuts of beef into very simple categories, clarifying each so that you choose the best one for your needs.

I worked with my all-time favorite food writer Kemp Minifie on this map to isolate the most important cuts, their definitive qualities and special tips. Kemp was the food editor of Gourmet Magazine for years, and she really knew how to clarify the seemingly complex world behind the butcher case. This map will make you a well-rounded expert on choosing and preparing great beef dishes.
