Been There – Wyoming

Can you guess what tag wasn’t used at Starbucks-Mugs.com yet? You got it – Wyoming! Well, that’s in the past, since Starbucks has just released Been There Wyoming mug. Unfortunately we only see the back of the mug as that’s what was spotted online. Still, the mug is real and it already has caused arguments among muggers on whether they are going to collect it or not! Personally, I think it is just amazing that all states get their respective mug, even those with very few number of Starbucks stores.… Read more

You Are Here – Heidelberg

Yet another YAH from Germany! Is it going to be as big as China? Nonetheless, please meet Starbucks You Are Here Heidelberg mug. This town on the Neckar River is known for the Heidelberg University, founded back in 1386, making it Germany’s oldest university. Only 150k people leave in Heidelberg and half of them are students. Add here numerous tourists looking for historical points of attraction and pleasant views. And that’s what they coming for:
– Studentenkarzer – university jail – yes, you heard it right.… Read more

Been There – Pennsylvania

Like it or not, this is happening! No less than the first real BT mug was spotted in stores. And this is… Starbucks Been There Pennsylvania mug! I did expect these to come later, but it’s here and it’s real. Numerous stores across US and Canada already announced YAH retirement by placing signs next to stands with mugs earlier this week. I still thought we have time, but there isn’t. Hoard what you can hoard guys!

P.S. I will update the post with the description of the mug later.… Read more

You Are Here – Germany

We had eleven German cities released prior getting to this one – Starbucks You Are Here Germany mug. Believe it or not, this is the 12th mug from this country.
As for design, this is probably the first time when I can name all elements from the mug easily:
– sun and mountains
– German sausages – there are literally hundreds of different German sausages. Important to note, that sausage names like Bratwurst, Kochwurst, Rohwurst, Brühwurst, Blutwurst or Leberwurst do not represent a particular German sausage, but a sausage type which is made in a particular way.… Read more

You Are Here – Helsinki

Here is the first YAH from Finland – Starbucks You Are Here Helsinki mug.
Did you know Helsinki can be shortened to Hki? This is the capital and the larges city in Finland located on the shore of the Gulf of Finland (Baltic Sea). It was founded in 1550 as the town of Helsingfors and later renamed to Helsinki.
The front of the mug:
Eduskuntatalo (Parliament House) – is the seat of the Parliament of Finland. The building was officially opened on March 7, 1931 and has been the key place of Finland’s political life since.… Read more

You Are Here – Geneva

YAH collection is continuing to expand in Europe with the fresh release of Starbucks You Are Here Geneva mug. The color scheme is pretty interesting. The front of the mug is mostly green.
– there is a red statue I can’t identify (I tried hard, trust me)
– four 15-foot-tall statues of Geneva luminaries on Reformation Wall (Mur de la Réformation)
– running shoes – for Geneva Marathon (The Harmony Geneva Marathon for UNICEF) – is an annual marathon held in May

The rest of the mug is mostly blue and shows:
– beautiful Lake Geneva – it is one of the largest lakes in Western Europe and gives you absolutely stunning views with mountains in the background.… Read more

Been There – Delaware

Starbucks Been There Delaware Mug was pretty easy to identify as it says “The Diamond State” right on the back. I also see the flag of the state and a beach chair. I will refrain from guessing what else is on the mug till it is released. Sorry guys.
Update from 2018/03/17: adding the real picture of the mug. The full review to come soon.
Update from 2018/04/12: adding the pic of the front and the back from eBay.

Been There – Miami

As you probably know, many US cities will also be a part of the new collection. This is Starbucks Been There Miami mug. Is there a palm tree? Yes, a huge one. What else? Too early to say, we need real pics and not just preview. I will update this post as soon as I get anything better, guys. Stay tuned!… Read more

Been There – Tennessee

Another leaked photo – Starbucks Been There Tennessee Mug. The quality of the image is very poor and I can only recognize the Tennessee flag and electric guitar – the latter referring to state playing a critical role in the development of many forms of American popular music. Beale Street in Memphis is considered by many to be the birthplace of the blues. It is also home to Sun Records, where musicians such as Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, Roy Orbison, and Charlie Rich began their recording careers.… Read more
