Released February 15th, 2010 is this Japanese exclusive Starbucks Card called "Sakura".
Okay, now what does SAKURA mean? In Japanese it means: cherry blossom, or cherry blossom tree. Sakura holds a very special place in the Japanese heart. As far back as the 10th century the blossom has been considered the national flower, and it has been the subject of poetry, prose, and paintings over the ages. From the 10th century to the present day, hanami or "flower viewing" parties have been held in March and April to celebrate the ephemeral beauty of the delicate pink flower. "Sakura" is also a very popular Japanese female name.
This Card has various pastel colors and flooded with Sakura flowers. A simple but striking Card! |
