Japan Starbucks City Mugs

During our trip in Japan, we noticed that the Starbucks in every major city will feature their own city mug. The designs will feature the city landmark or design for that city. Over the course of eight days, we collect over 14 mugs from our trip.


When we purchase the mug at each Starbucks coffee shop, we ask them to gift wrap. Some use gift boxes with tissue paper, other use bubble wrap and ribbons.


Here they are all unwrapped


Tokyo city mug features the skylines of Tokyo with the Tokyo Tower in Red.


We didn't go to Sapporo on our trip this time. This mug was purchase on the last day of our trip at the Narita airport Starbucks.



Okinawa and Hiroshima were also purchase at the Narita airport Starbucks.


Shizuoka was purchase on the third day of our trip while visiting wife's friend in Shizuoka.


Yokohama's mug design features the skylines of Yokohama, including the Landmark Plaza, ferris wheel "Cosmo Clock 21" and the Grand Intercontinental Hotel.
