Packaging
I’ve had the incredible opportunity to write many stories about Starbucks coffee for core packaging and Reserve cards. Here are some examples of what the packaging and cards look like, with the copy I wrote to the side.
GUATEMALA CASI CIELO ANTIGUA
A HEAVENLY HARVEST
Straight from select farms in Guatemala’s high-altitude, volcanic Antigua region, this batch of single-origin Guatemala Casi Cielo® represents our finest possible expression of one of our most-beloved coffee origins. Harvested just once a year, this coffee—both bright and smooth with lemon and dark cocoa flavors—is not to be missed.

THANKSGIVING BLEND 2021
HERITAGE & HARMONY
This year, for the first time, we welcome a third coffee origin to our Thanksgiving cup—Ethiopia Sidamo. Now representing all of the major coffee-growing regions of the world, this harmonious blend sings with smooth Guatemala Antigua and herbal West Java. Cooked up by our master blenders the way a chef might prepare a Thanksgiving feast, the result is an elegant cup with notes of candied pecan, sage and dried fig sweetness.
