Understanding Siren Traits

Terroir

The "terroir" trait is the background color and texture of the Siren stamp. The word is French in origin and refers to the environmental factors which affect a crop's characteristics. The terroir trait in Siren stamps represents the the climate, terrain, and geography of where Starbucks' coffees are produced and grown.  

There are 27 different terroirs with varying rarities: Orange Floe (108), Blue Chasm (96), Blue Cirrus (93), Orange Desert (93), Blue Swirl (92), Green Sunset (89), Pink Sunset (86), Purple Yellow Haze (86), Blue Cloudbreak (84), Purple Cloudbreak (83), Yellow Cavern (81), Yellow Green Haze (81), Blue Green Haze (80), Green Stratus (79), Blue Stratus (78), Red Cavern (77), Blue Floe (76), Green Cirrus (74), Bright Floe (74), Purple Cirrus (73), Turquoise Cloudbreak (69), Ice Cave (69), Green Desert (63), Orange Swirl (57), Lavender Wisps (22), Swell (19) and Fogbank (18).
