We’ve identified five design elements from the ornament earlier, and it is time to review the rest from the Discovery Series Atlanta mug.

– We can see the Atlanta skyline on the front, which is a striking amalgamation of modern architecture, featuring iconic structures like the Bank of America Plaza and the soaring SunTrust Plaza against the Southern sky. These gleaming towers, along with the distinctive cylindrical shape of the Westin Peachtree Plaza Hotel and the contemporary Mercedes-Benz Stadium, create a dynamic urban silhouette that perfectly represents the city’s role as the capital of the New South.… Read more

Discovery Series Ornament Atlanta is a mini mug from Georgia. Starbucks released it for both the Been There and You Are Here collections, so I was pretty confident that the Discovery Series would get one too.

Here are the symbols and landmarks that we can see in the design of the Starbucks Discovery Series Ornament – Georgia:

I am still catching up with the USA releases, and here’s one of them. Starbucks Been There – Savannah mug should be available in stores for a while now.

Savannah’s history is as captivating as its picturesque landscape. Founded in 1733 by British General James Oglethorpe, Savannah served as the first colonial capital of Georgia. The city’s strategic location along the Savannah River facilitated trade and commerce, contributing to its early growth and prosperity.

Throughout the centuries, Savannah bore witness to pivotal events in American history.… Read more

Starbucks Been There Ornament Georgia is mostly blue and has light blue string as well.
Do you know why is Georgia called the Empire State of the South? I believe it’s because of its role in the civil war. It was, and at certain extent remains, the transportation hub and financial center of the region. I have to add, that this nickname is rarely used nowadays, with the Peach State predominating. … Read more

Starbucks Been There Atlanta mug. I’ve spotted not just one but two radio cassette players on this mug (one on the front and one on the back). There should be some interesting story behind that. Will definitely find that out in my updated post.
Update from 2018-07-09: as it was expected, the delay of the release of this mug was caused by a misprint. See v1 and v2 side by side: it should be “Chattahoochee river” instead of “Сhattahoochie river”.… Read more
