The Latest Starbucks Mugs

You Are Here – Firenze

Posted on

Similar to other Italian cities, an existing mug gets an update in the form of You Are Here Firenze, with the only change being the name written in Italian, rather than English. I think this is the last one to be revised, as all the other cities have either been updated or were originally released with their Italian names. The only exception, however, might be Veròna, which could be written in the Venetian language.

Firenze was founded by the Romans in 59 BC as Florentia, meaning “flourishing” or “prosperous.” The city grew into a major medieval center of trade, banking, and art, eventually becoming the birthplace of the Renaissance in the 14th and 15th centuries under the influence of powerful families such as the Medici.… Read more

Discovery Series – West Virginia

Here’s the release from the Mountain State. I have to admit, the colour chosen for the title of the Discovery Series West Virginia mug is not the strongest choice, as it tends to blend into the green background. Well, this is what makes it unique!

This city in New Mexico has never received a Starbucks mug before. To add more to that, the Discovery Series Albuquerque is the first city mug from this state.
