You Are Here Christmas – China
Even though it’s not Christmas yet, Starbucks decided to come up with one of the most beautiful mugs from soon to be discontinued series – You Are Here Christmas China. Again, considering the release date, we probably better call it You Are Here China Gold? Regardless, I have to repeat, this mug looks amazing. My understanding this is due to big dragon, which is not just outlined, but fully painted with Gold. This is probably one of those “must have” mugs every collector should get.… Read more
You Are Here – Wales
As the last accords of discontinued collection – Starbucks You Are Here Wales
The mug is designed having in mind the Flag of Wales, which incorporates the red dragon along with the Tudor colors of green and white.
From the mug:
– sheep – since sheep farming is the important part of economy of Wales. Interesting enough, there are more than 10 million sheep in Wales
– green hills or mountains – probably referring to Snowdonia – mountainous region and a national park in northwestern Wales.… Read more
You Are Here – Spain
Here’s newly released Starbucks You Are Here Spain mug. According to the design of it, all you need to know about Spain:
– lots of sun
– sea, ocean, beaches and palm trees
– soccer (it is called football in Europe)
– Flamenco – which is not just the dance but a set of music traditions of Southern Spain.
I still need to see the back of the mug to finish this list though.… Read more
You Are Here – Scotland
More European country YAHs are coming, as promised. Here’s Starbucks You Are Here Scotland. I would like to mention Loch Ness Monster which found its place on the mug. Even though it’s just a part of the folklore, along with a famous photo of “Nessie” made in 1934 which was confirmed to be a hoax, it still draws people’s attention and attracts tourists to lake Loch Ness.… Read more
You Are Here – Norway
If you’re missing YAHs already, here is the small treat – Starbucks You Are Here – Norway mug. As it was planned, this summer will be the Country mugs season. This particular mug has a very vivid design with popping colors: red, blue and white are pretty much the only colors used. We see two Norwegian flags (like one was not enough), mountains, snow and Christmas trees. Add here skis to emphasise skiing being huge in Norway and Oseberg Ship – a well-preserved Viking ship displayed at the Viking Ship Museum at Bygdøy and you are going to get pretty much the full picture of this mug.… 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
