Been There Ornament – Illinois 2

I was expecting the release of the Starbucks Been There Ornament Illinois 2 long time ago, since the bigger mug came out back in 2019. The updated version is finally here, and it seems that the only difference compared to the Illinois Ornament v1 is the dashes in the name of one of the State’s landmarks.

Discovered in 1739 by French explorer M. de Lery, “Cave-In-Rock” stands as an iconic point of interest in Illinois. Carved over eons by the relentless flow of water, this natural limestone cave embodies a tangible link to the region’s frontier past.… Read more

Been There – Manila 2 – Summer Edition 2023

In one of my previous posts, I mentioned that last summer there were four Philippines mugs released in the scope of a mini sub-series. Starbucks Been There Manila 2 Summer Edition 2023 is one of them.
As you can see from the pictures below, it resembles the regular mug very much, with the only difference being the black outlined design.

Here are some points of interest that can be seen on the sides of the mug:

– The Manila City Hall, an iconic symbol of governance and history, stands proudly in the heart of Manila, Philippines.… Read more

From its bustling cities to its serene coastal marshes, Georgia offers an array of attractions and symbols that capture the essence of the American South.

You Are Here – Clermont-Ferrand

Starbucks You Are Here – Clermont-Ferrand is a mug for a vibrant city nestled in the heart of France, a captivating blend of history, culture, and natural beauty. With its rich heritage and unique charm, it has become a must-visit destination for travelers from around the world.

One of the most fascinating aspects of Clermont-Ferrand is its historical significance. The city dates back to ancient times, with evidence of human presence dating back to prehistoric eras. It was the capital of the Arverni Gauls and was later conquered by the Romans, who named it “Augustonemetum.” The city played a crucial role during the Middle Ages and was a center of trade and culture.… Read more

Been There – Philippines 2 – Summer Edition 2023

What you’re seeing is the mug that popped up last summer and caused some confusion. At first glance, Been There – Philippines 2 – Summer Edition 2023 looked like the Christmas mug, outlined with black only. However, after a quick search, I found out that the somewhat official name of the new four Philippines mugs (see the last photo in this post) is “Summer Been There Series”. The cover is not different from the regular version and has no additional writing, however, the actual box is black.… Read more

You Are Here Ornament – Ho Chi Minh 2

Along with the bigger mug, Starbucks released You Are Here Ornament – Ho Chi Minh 2, which is an updated version of the existing ornament. It has been a while since we’ve seen the last release from this collection, and that’s more than 3 years after the release of the Been There Vietnam ornament.

Again, I don’t understand the reasoning for the release, but I am really happy to add this ornament to my collection.

Been There – China

Starbucks Been There – China is probably the best-looking mug from this series that I’ve seen. The designers did a great job while using bright red and shiny gold colors. This, however, comes with the inconvenience of not being able to use it in the microwave or dishwasher. Please note, that there are dozens of Been There city mugs from China that I will be adding soon, stay tuned!

There are many symbols and points of interest from China that can be seen on the mug.… Read more

Been There – Cartagena

Starbucks Been There – Cartagena should be available in stores for a while now. It’s not the first Colombian city mug from this series, but rather the part of the second batch.

Cartagena, a vibrant city nestled on the northern coast of Colombia, is a cultural gem steeped in history and charm. Originally inhabited by indigenous peoples, the city was founded by Spanish explorer Pedro de Heredia in 1533, becoming a strategic port in the Spanish colonial empire. Over the centuries, Cartagena thrived as a vital hub for trade, drawing merchants, adventurers, and pirates alike.… Read more
