Officially released with the 2017 Christmas and holiday Cards last November 2, 2017 and exclusive to the Philippines is the Kape Vinta card. Kape Vinta is Tagalog for Coffee Boat.
This special market exclusive card is inspired by the Starbucks Kape Vinta whole bean artwork. This Philippine-exclusive card is included in every 2018 Starbucks Planner, a first in the history of Starbucks planner promotions, at least in the Philippines. This means that this card is not available at a store level and you would need to avail of the 2018 planner to have one.
To capture the essence of shared passions for great coffee between Starbucks and the people of the Philippines, one of the country's most distinguished painters, Mr. Mauro Malang Santos, created the stamp for the coffee.
"The Kape Vinta Blend artwork, a new and distinct Starbucks design, embraces the proud traditions and cultures of Filipinos. It is my gift to the Starbucks coffee experience," said Mr. Santos. "Starbucks conscious devotion to its people and coffee greatly inspired me in producing the artwork."
I really like this card. Directly competing for my fondness with the Agila Card, I feel this particular card design captured what a Philippine exclusive card should be.
Blogger's Note: Starbucks Destinations Series is my attempt to chronicle my thoughts on different city and country specific Starbucks Cards. Most photos and some descriptions are taken mainly from both official and non official Starbucks pages. I do not claim ownership of the photos unless otherwise noted.
