You don’t need to travel as much as we do to include compression socks in your travel kit. They are essential for flying, helping your body to keep your blood flowing in your feet and legs while sitting on your ass for hours at a time. Many people wear them when working out, or if standing most of the day at work, too. We’ve tried many brands and VIM & VIGR is our new favorite. They offer multiple styles (regular socks, open-toe socks, leg sleeves) in three different knits—cotton, wool (our favorite) and moisture-wick nylon), various compression strength, and of these in many solid colors and patterns.

It covers helpful things like understanding the various types of sake, what they are best paired with, how to read sake labels, and much more. You can add some sake to your order, too…

Jorge Mendez runs his family farm and apiary in the Huehuetenango region of Guatamala, high up in the mountains. His coffee, Finca El Apiario (Honeybee Farm) is a favorite of many roasters, and is named after his bees. Coffee Blossom Honey sells the honey from the farm, which is made primarily from the honeybee’s main diet, coffee blossoms. It has a “subtle sweetness with delicate lavender notes” and naturally pairs well with tea and coffee.
