Our take on the Starbucks Been There Series Boston Ceramic Mug, 14 Oz

A 14 oz ceramic coffee mug from Starbucks' Been There series, decorated with Boston landmarks and local motifs. It is a collectible souvenir mug built for everyday coffee and tea, and the series has a following among travelers who pick one up per city. Compared with plain ceramic mugs it trades minimalism for detailed city artwork; compared with other souvenir mugs it is heavier and better finished. Owners of the series generally like the artwork and sturdy feel, though hand-washing is the usual recommendation for the print.
