This week was pretty eventful in terms of BT releases. Namely, Wednesday, April 18 is the day when licensed stores started selling US BT cities. Yes, there was Austin earlier, but this time it was official green light from Starbucks, I guess. How do you guys like this Starbucks Been There Dallas mug? To be honest with you, I am getting more and more into this new collection. On the other side, locals complain that it doesn’t really feels like Dallas to them.… Read more

I’ve posted some Canadian City mugs from the BT series recently, but those were just previews. As you probably remember, those pictures were revealed by Starbucks via Pinterest. The actual release was planned for June, and I didn’t really expect this to happen that early, namely the appearance of the Starbucks Been There Austin mug in store! Yes, it’s happening! Even though not all States have been officially released yet, Starbucks started to roll out cities! The list is pretty big and there is a good chance your city is also coming out.… Read more
Like I’ve mentioned before, Alberta will be the biggest in terms of BTs, and we know why. Pretty much the main reason is Banff National Park and therefore Starbucks Been There Banff mug. It is using blue color scheme which makes sense, since this park is all about mountains with snow caps, lakes and skies.
See more details in the picture below. I will get back to it when this mug is officially released and we have photos of all sides.… Read more

A BT mug I didn’t expect to be released that early has been spotted in Seattle today. As you can see from the photo, it is Starbucks Been There Pike Place mug. I didn’t mention that to you, but according to rumors, cities were only supposed to hit the stores in May. However, it looks like I didn’t properly inspect the leaked pamphlet:
Thus, Been There Pike Place Market was indeed planned for March 27 and so it happened.
An interesting detail about this one – the box is not blue as for other BTs, but orange.… Read more
I really wonder if BTs of the same color will look similar if stacked in the cabinet or shelf. I feel like Starbucks was trying to save on paint… As you can see, Starbucks Been There Washington DC mug is somewhat a sibling of Virginia BT added today as well. So the difference is in the details, I guess.
Little bit unexpected, yet pleasant surprise from Vietnam – Starbucks You Are Here Hai Phong mug. Love it’s colors! It almost made me want to collect all five Vietnamese YAHs. Interesting enough, according to Starbucks Vietnam Facebook page, you can only buy this mug at Starbucks Tran Phu, 15A Tran Phu street, Hai Phong city, but I am pretty sure in a month or two it will appear in all major airports of the country.
Hai Phong is a major industrial city and the third largest city in Vietnam.… Read more
