In line with his earlier vision, Schultz sought to introduce Americans to a more sophisticated coffee-drinking experience. Starbucks chose only to offer coffee made from high-quality beans (Arabica rather the Robusta beans that were more commonly used in the US at that time); it developed a distinct taste by developing a house style of roasting coffee beans, introduced a new language for ordering coffee and experimented with innovative coffee-based drinks. One of the company's early TV advertising campaigns invited viewers to wake up and smell the coffee, encouraging them to see themselves as part of this new urbane, coffee-drinking culture. The coffee shops were designed in a manner that was both comfortable and stylish with an emphasis on customer service. The aim was to create an ambiance that was chic, welcoming but slightly exclusive, justifying the premium prices charged.
