With the release of the regular YAH mug for Ba Na Hills comes his little brother You Are Here Ornament – Ba Na Hills. It could be seen on the pictures from Starbucks Facebook page earlier, but the quality of the photo was so poor, that I didn’t dare to post it here. Now, thanks to a collector, we have clear evidence that it exists. It has a blue string and can only be purchased in the Starbucks store in Ba Na Hills resort.… Read more
It has been a couple of weeks since both Pattaya and Phuket mugs and ornaments have been released in stores, so I am updating the respective posts with much better pictures with all sides exposed. Check these out:
Starbucks You Are Here Ornament – Netherlands comes with the dark blue string and the same colorful design as his bigger brother.
As a reminder, there was also Holiday Edition mug and ornament.… Read more
Here is the second mini mug from the recent weekend release. Starbucks You Are Here Ornament Switzerland is a colorful representative of this adorable series and has everything this country is famous for: cheese, chocolate, watch, lakes, and mountains. And for the latter, designers specifically depicted the Matterhorn, a pyramidal peak between Italy and Switzerland. The four steep faces, rising above the surrounding glaciers, face the four compass points and are split by the Hörnli, Furggen, Leone/Lion, and Zmutt ridges. As for the bear (on the back of the mug), this is probably related to Bern, “city of Bears”.… Read more
It has been a while since the last YAH ornament has been added here. I sincerely believed that Starbucks will be releasing one ornament every Friday. Unfortunately, this didn’t happen, and as an excuse, our beloved company has delivered two minis in one shot last weekend. You Are Here Ornament Austria is one of those. It comes with the blue string and has the same color inside, similar to the bigger mug, Austria YAH. As a reminder, there was also a limited edition ornament for this country.… Read more
Starbucks Been There Ornament Michigan v2 is finally here and I have to mention, that the bigger version of updated Michigan mug was spotted almost 3 months ago. As a reminder, the only change, the new mug is introducing, is “Winter Water Wonderland” slogan being replaced with “Water Winter Wonderland”. And as I’ve suggested earlier, I consider this a fix and not just a revision, since there was, obviously, the wrong motto used for v1.… Read more
Similar to two Thailand YAHs coming out together, there are also two minis in the batch. Starbucks You Are Here Ornament Phuket is accompanying Pattaya and I believe will be available in stores together with the latter (somewhere in April). The ornament has the navy string, and as you can see, it is of the regular shape. Not sure what I am talking about? Just compare it to the string used for Thailand YAH Ornament, which was the only mini with this type of string (flat ribbon, instead of rope).… Read more
This is good news for mini mugs collectors, because previously announced Pattaya YAH comes with a smaller brother, Starbucks You Are Here Ornament Pattaya. The inside of the ornament is pink, as well as the string. Just a reminder, it’s not been released officially yet, wait for the April to get it.
Update: since it has been released, I’ve added a collage of all its sides:

You Are Here Ornament Japan 3 Spring Edition accompanies the regular size mug during today’s release. The color of the string is pink, same as the inside.
Starbucks chose Fridays for the release of its European YAH Ornaments. Here is the map and list of those, released so far:
