The Latest Starbucks Mugs

Starbucks Discovery Glass Ornaments 2025

Posted on

Starbucks has unexpectedly introduced a festive new addition for collectors this holiday season – Discovery Series Glass Ornaments. While I don’t personally collect these, I thought it was worth sharing the news, especially since this release connects directly to the already popular Discovery Series mugs. The company released similar ornaments before, most notably with the glass versions inspired by the Been There series. Even earlier, there were the cold-cup ceramic ornaments, which carried their own unique designs but weren’t tied to any specific mug line.… Read more

Discovery Series – British Columbia

Posted on

Discovery Series British Columbia is a mug for the Canadian Province which has a history shaped by Indigenous peoples, rugged landscapes, and the Pacific coastline. Long before it joined Confederation in 1871, First Nations communities lived across its forests, islands, and mountains with deep cultural and environmental knowledge. The arrival of European explorers and the fur trade brought rapid change to the region. Gold rushes, railroads, and coastal ports later fueled its growth and diversity. Today, British Columbia stands as a blend of natural wonder, outdoor adventure, and vibrant cultural identity.… Read more

Been There – Louisiana 3

Posted on

I had the pictures of the Been There Louisiana v3 mug sitting around, but for some reason, I forgot to make a post! There are probably very few people who care about these small differences, but it’s my job to make sure they’re documented for everyone’s reference. I’ve made a collage of all three versions for your convenience – see it below.

This mug is likely the last release from the U.S. within the Been There series. It’s the third revision, following the original misprinted version (v1) that was quickly replaced by a corrected one (v2).… Read more

Been There Ornament – Perlis

Posted on

The Been There Ornament Perlis is a mini version of the mug we reviewed earlier. I’m lucky to have this in my collection, thanks to a friend who travels frequently across Asia.

Perlis, the smallest state in Malaysia, may be compact in size, but it is rich in history and natural beauty. Located in the far north of Peninsular Malaysia, it shares a border with Thailand and has long served as a vital trading route between the two nations. Historically known as part of the ancient Kingdom of Kedah, Perlis became a separate state in the early 19th century and developed its own distinct cultural identity.… Read more

Discovery Series Baltimore is a mug for one of the oldest and most character-filled cities in the United States.

Its harbour played a key role during the War of 1812, inspiring Francis Scott Key to write “The Star-Spangled Banner.” Over time, the city became known for its working-class roots, vibrant arts scene, and resilient community spirit. Today, Baltimore blends historic grit with creative energy, proudly reflecting both its past and future on every street.… Read more

Been There Antigua Guatemala is the second mug from this Central American country known for its rich Mayan heritage, volcanic landscapes, and vibrant colonial cities like Antigua.

Founded in the early 16th century, it was originally named Santiago de los Caballeros and served as a major political and religious center for Spanish colonial rule.
