India, 8th August 2025: TATA Starbucks India announces the return of its iconic Anniversary Blend in India, a full-bodied roast that pays homage to decades of craft, care, and coffee mastery. The blend has been a seasonal favourite since its debut in 1996 and continues to remain a celebration of craft, heritage, and the signature Starbucks coffee experience. Returning just in time for Raksha Bandhan, it makes for a meaningful gift rich in tradition, and even richer in flavour.
More than just a blend, it is a story brewed over the years drawing from the lush, volcanic soils of Sumatra, West Java, and Sulawesi. The arabica beans are aged for up to five years to unlock a flavour that’s rich, layered, and quietly powerful with warm cedary spice, a whisper of allspice, and a hint of fresh tarragon, like a memory that lingers.
This season, celebrate Raksha Bandhan with a blend as timeless as a bond that speaks of warmth and memories.
Vibhor Mishra, Coffee Ambassador, APAC and China, Starbucks, said, “The Anniversary Blend is a celebration of everything we stand for at Starbucks. Each year, it brings us back to our roots that has defined our journey with coffee lovers across the country.”
Available for a limited time 250 grams, the Anniversary Blend can be enjoyed as the espresso of choice in handcrafted beverages across Starbucks India stores nationwide. It is also available in packaged whole bean format for those who wish to bring the celebration home.
