The Latest Starbucks Mugs

Been There – Siem Reap

Posted on

Been There Siem Reap is a mug for one of Cambodia’s most visited destinations, best known as the gateway to the ancient temples of Angkor. Over the years, the city has grown from a quiet provincial town into a major cultural and tourism center while still maintaining strong ties to traditional Khmer heritage. The Starbucks mug design highlights many of the landmarks, street scenes, and cultural elements associated with Siem Reap, blending famous temple architecture with local markets, riverside scenery, and everyday life.… Read more

Discovery Series – Wyoming

Posted on

Starbucks Discovery Series Wyoming is a mug for a state defined by vast open landscapes, rugged mountain ranges, geothermal wonders, and a strong connection to the American West. Known for its national parks, wildlife, ranching culture, and frontier history, Wyoming offers some of the most dramatic scenery in the United States. The Starbucks mug design captures this identity through symbols tied to nature, rodeo traditions, state emblems, and outdoor adventure. The artwork feels unmistakably western, combining wilderness and cowboy culture into a single composition.… Read more

Relief – Madrid

Posted on

Starbucks Relief Madrid is another mug that was not added to the site at the time of its release, so I am correcting that now.

Featured on the front of the mug is Almudena Cathedral, the principal Catholic cathedral of Madrid and one of the city’s most recognizable landmarks. Located opposite the Royal Palace, the cathedral blends neoclassical, neo-Gothic, and neo-Romanesque architectural styles, reflecting the long period over which it was constructed. Its richly decorated interior, colorful ceiling paintings, and impressive dome make it a remarkable cultural and religious site in the Spanish capital.… Read more

Discovery Series – Mazatlán

Posted on

Discovery Series Mazatlán is just one of many mugs from Mexico that will join the collection in the upcoming months.

Mazatlán is a coastal city on Mexico’s Pacific coast, located in the state of Sinaloa and widely known for its beaches, fishing industry, historic center, and vibrant seaside atmosphere. Often called the “Pearl of the Pacific,” the city combines colonial architecture, oceanfront promenades, tropical scenery, and strong regional traditions. The Starbucks mug design captures this energetic coastal identity through a mix of marine life, beach activities, local celebrations, and recognizable cultural symbols.… Read more

Been There – Philippines Christmas 2025

Posted on

Just when I thought I had completed the full list of Starbucks Been There mugs, I discovered a couple of releases from the Philippines that had slipped through the cracks. Navigating the many editions from this country is already a challenge, which makes carefully documenting each release all the more rewarding.

The Starbucks Been There Philippines Christmas 2025 introduces a fresh color palette alongside the other versions of this mug. Even the packaging adopts a matching green tone, perfectly complementing the festive design.… Read more

Relief – Hong Kong 2 (Dragon)

Posted on

While revisiting some of the older Starbucks collections, I realized that a few Relief Series mugs are still missing from the site. One of them is the Relief Hong Kong 2 (Dragon) mug, and as the name immediately suggests, the dragon is the defining visual element of the design. The artwork places strong emphasis on the creature, giving the mug a bold and unmistakably Hong Kong identity that differs quite a bit from the more skyline-focused releases.

In Hong Kong and broader Chinese culture, the dragon holds deep symbolic importance and is traditionally associated with power, prosperity, wisdom, and good fortune.… Read more

Discovery Series Ornament – Brasil

Posted on

Starbucks Discovery Series Ornament Brasil is one of the many mini mugs released across Latin America. Brazil had never received an ornament before, with the closest equivalent being the demi-sized Icon series. As seen on the mug, the title is written in Portuguese, reflecting a common trend in which most of the new releases feature the destination’s local language.

Brazil is the largest country in South America, known for its immense biodiversity, energetic culture, world-famous festivals, and deep passion for music and sport.… Read more

You Are Here Ornament – Serbia

Posted on

Thanks to a friend, I can add this You Are Here Ornament Serbia to my collection and, for now, conclude this series. I made a very short post about the larger mug exactly seven years ago, so I guess this is a good opportunity to revisit the design in greater detail now.

Serbia is a country shaped by centuries of history, strong cultural traditions, and diverse landscapes ranging from mountain ranges to historic cities along the Danube River. Positioned at the crossroads of Central and Southeastern Europe, Serbia blends Roman heritage, medieval influences, and modern Balkan identity.… Read more

Discovery Series – Singapore

Posted on

Starbucks Discovery Series – Singapore now joins the ornament from the Lion City that we reviewed earlier together. Three details are particularly worth noting. First, the writing on the box cover appears in only one variation – English. Second, the mugs are manufactured in China. Finally, and perhaps most distinctively, this is the first mug in the Discovery Series to feature an SKU sticker attached to the bottom, similar to those found on Been There and You Are Here collections. In a way, this small detail once served as a sign that the mug was brand new and not used.… Read more

Discovery Series – México

Posted on

Starbucks Discovery Series México is one of many mugs and ornaments being released for this country in North America with a deep cultural history shaped by Indigenous civilizations, Spanish influence, regional traditions, and vibrant modern identity. From ancient pyramids and colonial cities to colorful festivals and world-famous cuisine, the country is known for its rich visual and cultural diversity. The Starbucks mug design embraces this energy through bold colors, festive imagery, and recognizable national symbols.

An interesting detail I would like to draw your attention to is that while the bottom of the mug and the SKU sticker on the box say the mug is made in Malaysia, there is another sticker right behind the handle that says “Hecho en China” (“Made in China”).… Read more
