The Latest Starbucks Mugs

Discovery Series Ornament – Hong Kong Disneyland

Posted on

Here is some exciting news from Hong Kong! As the new collection rolls out across Asia, I’ve spotted a brand-new release from a Disney-themed park. Interestingly, the Discovery Series Ornament Hong Kong Disneyland is being revealed before any other city or country mug or ornament from this region. As for the design, I’m slightly disappointed that Starbucks didn’t use a custom color for the circle on the front of the ornament, similar to what was done for the Disney releases in the US.… Read more

Discovery Series Ornament – West Virginia

Posted on

Similar to the previous series, the Discovery Series Ornament West Virginia is somewhat harder to find due to the smaller number of stores in the state.

West Virginia became a state in 1863 during the Civil War, separating from Virginia and establishing its own identity in the Appalachian region. The state is defined by rugged mountains, tight-knit communities, and long-standing cultural traditions. Its landscape has shaped both daily life and artistic expression for generations. The mug design reflects this connection between scenery, heritage, and music.… Read more

Discovery Series Ornament – Pittsburgh

Posted on

I reviewed the full-size mug recently; the Discovery Series Ornament Pittsburgh is a mini version of said mug.

Pittsburgh, located in western Pennsylvania, is a city defined by its three rivers, steep hillsides, and strong community traditions. Once known primarily for steel production, it has grown into a center for education, healthcare, and technology while maintaining its distinct local character. The city’s bridges, stairways, and riverfront spaces shape everyday life. The mug design captures these elements in a lively and recognizable Pittsburgh setting.… Read more

Been There – Goa

Posted on

It was almost impossible to find good pictures of the Been There Goa released for India’s smallest state. Big thanks to the our blog reader for providing these photos.

Goa, located on the western coast of India along the Arabian Sea, is known for its unique blend of Indian and Portuguese influences. A former Portuguese colony until 1961, the region developed a distinct architectural, cultural, and culinary identity. Today, Goa is famous for its beaches, festivals, and relaxed coastal atmosphere. The mug design brings together these defining elements into a vibrant snapshot of the state.… Read more

Discovery Series – Honolulu

Posted on

I was surprised by the number of releases from the Aloha State. Discovery Series Honolulu is the seventh (including the Campus mug) yet not the last mug from Hawaii.

Honolulu, the capital of Hawaii, is located on the island of Oahu and serves as the cultural and economic center of the state. Its name means “sheltered harbour” in Hawaiian, reflecting the natural protection of its coastal setting. Over time, Honolulu grew from a Polynesian settlement into a key Pacific port and modern island city.… Read more

Discovery Series – Memphis

Posted on

Discovery Series Memphis is a release for a city in Tennessee that was founded in 1819 and named after the ancient Egyptian capital on the Nile River, a reference chosen because of its location along the mighty Mississippi River. Just as its namesake thrived beside water, Memphis grew into a major river port and cultural crossroads in the American South. Over time, it became known for music, civil rights history, and a distinctive riverfront skyline. The mug design brings together these defining elements into a lively portrait of the city.… Read more

Discovery Series Big Island is the first of its kind, being the first mug for the largest island in the Hawaiian chain. The Island of Hawai’i is bigger than all the other islands combined, with around 200,000 people living here, spread out across small towns and rural communities. The island is known for its active volcanoes, tall mountains, and beaches in many different colors. Every part of the island feels different, which makes exploring it exciting.

– Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park is one of the most powerful places you can visit.… Read more

Discovery Series – Colorado

Posted on

Funny enough, I reviewed all the city mugs from Colorado before adding the Discovery Series Colorado state mug.

Colorado, admitted to the Union in 1876 as the Centennial State, is known for its high elevations, dramatic mountain ranges, and expansive outdoor spaces. From alpine peaks to rolling plains, the state offers remarkable geographic diversity. Its identity is closely tied to wildlife, state symbols, and year-round adventure. The mug design gathers these elements into a vivid snapshot of Colorado’s natural character.

Shown throughout the design are a collection of official state symbols and iconic landscapes that reflect Colorado’s environment and lifestyle.… Read more

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
