The Latest Starbucks Mugs

Been There – Perth

Posted on

Starbucks Been There Perth is probably the last mug from Australia released in this series, and I feel like a new collection will emerge in the Land Down Under very soon.

Perth emerged as Western Australia’s capital following the establishment of the Swan River settlement in 1829, a bold colonial venture shaped as much by ambition as by isolation. Unlike many Australian cities founded through penal systems, Perth began as a civilian settlement and later relied on transported convicts in the mid-19th century to build roads, ports, and public works.… Read more

Founded in the early 15th century as a Malay sultanate, it rose quickly as a major port along the Strait of Malacca, drawing traders from China, India, the Middle East, and Europe.… Read more
