Posted on

Discovery Series Montana is a mug for the Treasure State.

Montana’s history as the 41st state begins with its admission to the Union on November 8, 1889, though the region’s story stretches back to the Lewis and Clark expedition of 1805-1806.

Another Starbucks Been There Mug – Montana. This is only the back of the mug and it’s too early to identify elements of the design, but it’s clear that it will be dedicated to wonders of nature and wildlife, which Montana is famous of. Will just mention Flathead Lake – one of the largest natural freshwater lakes by surface area in US. Stay tuned, better pics are yet to come.

Update from 2018-05-12:
This was one of the first BT mugs I’ve posted at Starbucks-Mugs.com.… Read more
