Discovery Series – Bangkok

Posted on

As you have probably noticed, Starbucks has begun rolling out the Discovery Series mugs across many parts of the world simultaneously. Alongside numerous releases throughout the Americas, several new designs have also appeared across Asia.

Instead, let’s take a closer look at the mug for one of Thailand’s cities: Discovery Series Bangkok.

Thailand’s capital city, Bangkok, is known for its combination of historic temples, busy avenues, river transportation, street food culture, and modern skyline, and the mug reflects that contrast through a mix of traditional and urban imagery.… Read more
