Yet another Philippines mug – You Are Here Series Bulacan. Only 5 mugs to go! I am little bit surprised with this one as we don’t have Icon version for Bulacan. Well, again, like I’ve always said, it looks like there is no obvious strategy for the releases. Muggers are left with limited choices of waiting for the actual release or trying to get some insights from Starbucks employees. Again, 15 mugs are expected for Philippines so let’s wait for more.… Read more
This is the 9th YAH from Philippines, Pampanga. As I wrote earlier it is expected up to 15 mugs to be released for this country. I am going to add a photo of this mug later when I get it. Stay tuned.
Update 04/04/17: added the featured image as well as the image from the official site.… Read more
Mother Russia gets another YAH. We had Moscow, we had Moscow Christmas. This time Starbucks releases St. Petersburg. It looks appealing (my opinion only).
I expect this one will be somewhat hard to get for US muggers and shipping might be expensive. I suggest only using UPS, FedEx or something similar rather than Russian Post (just believe me).… Read more
Today many FB users reported the release of another YAH from Asia – somewhat expected Thailand You Are Here mug.
Yellow and orange colors are prevailing here. Mug shows some generic buildings and auto rickshaw.
See also Ornament version of this mug. It has an unique feature.… Read more
This new YAH is kind of unexpected one. I am used to Starbucks following Icons when releasing new mugs from You Are Here Series. So far we only have one Icon from Kazakhstan and it is, guess what, the Kazakhstan Icon
So, again, Astana YAH is an interesting move. They placed some architecture elements on the mug as well as some national symbols – Kazah Kalpak (hat) and Kazah Ornament.
I am sure this is the first one from the series for this country and there will be at least another one, Almaty, as there are five Starbucks stores there versus only one in Astana.… Read more
Remember I told you there were three rumored new YAHs from Philippines, but the pics of them looked really bad. Yesterday I’ve added two of them with better pictures (Boracay and Tagaytay) and now it’s time for third one – Baguio. The total amount of Philippines YAHs now reached eight, so I now starting to believe in the total number of fifteen mugs announced (unofficially) on Facebook.
Baguio is situated in northern Luzon (island) and is also known as Summer Capital of the Philippines.… Read more
The sixth YAH from Philippines was spotted in Facebook groups recently. Boracay it is. What is special about this location? It is a really small island in the western part of Philippines, but it is famous for beautiful beaches and relaxing atmosphere. It has received numerous awards from many magazines. White Beach and Bulabog Beach are two main points of attraction on the island. This is obviously why we see beach, ocean and palms on the mug.
I am sure you can buy this mug in any major Philippines airport or you can use the link below to buy online.… Read more
The picture of three new Philippines YAHs leaked on Facebook earlier last week, but the quality of it was so bad I was not sure if this was worth posting. I decided to wait till better photos appear. So here they are, but only two for now – Tagaytay and Boracay.
Tagaytay is a pretty popular touristic destination thanks to it’s cooler climate (higher altitude) and beautiful mountainous views. It is pretty close to Manila and overlooks Taal Lake in Batangas and Taal Volcano Island.… Read more
Cebu YAH is the fifth from Philippines mugs expected to be released on February 7. I had no doubt about Cebu as there are multiple versions of Cebu Icon and Relief
Can’t wait to add a photo of this mug to the post.
Update: it was revealed through Starbucks Philippines Facebook page that indeed 5 YAHs will hit the stores on February 7. They even posted high quality pics of these mugs.

This is another rumored Philippines mug – Makati. Again, I don’t have the picture yet, but will add this to this post as soon as people share it on Facebook. Stay tuned!
Update 2017/02/05: we now have pics of this mug – coming from official Starbucks Philippines Facebook page.
