Starbucks Philippines Christmas tradition returns with the 11th edition of the Starbucks Planner. 

This year’s theme is “Coffee Perfection” and will be highlighted throughout the planner. Coffee perfection begins with the journey of coffee, from the farmer to the buyer, roaster and barista. Each and every bean has a story that is unraveled by many pairs of caring hands before it becomes part of your perfectly handcrafted cup of coffee. Every turn of a page tells the story of how your cup of coffee has journeyed and was crafted perfectly for you.


The Limited Edition 2014 Starbucks Philippines Planner will be available in four (4) leather covers ( yellow, brown, magenta and black) and comes with a coffee icon bookmark. The colors of the leather covers are inspired by the roast profiles of whole bean coffees at Starbucks – Blonde Roast (yellow), Medium Roast (brown), Dark Roast (magenta) and Starbucks Reserve Coffees (exotic, rare and exquisite coffees) (black). New additions this year are the roast profile and coffee stamp stickers which customers may use once they experience the whole bean coffees. Also, the planner has turned digital through the use of QR codes that feature videos that will help customers with their coffee journey. The planner has fourteen (14) coupons with different Starbucks treats that can be shared with family, friends and loved ones. The coupons may be redeemed at any Starbucks store in the Philippines during a specified period in 2014.

A customer can avail of a 2014 Starbucks Philippines Planner promo card from November 2, 2013 to January 8, 2014. One (1) sticker is awarded for each Starbucks beverage purchase. Holder must accumulate a total of eighteen (18) stickers , nine (9) Christmas beverage plus nine (9) core beverages except bottled drinks) to redeem one (1) Limited Edition Starbucks Philippines 2014 Planner.
