The Tanba Chestnut Mont Blanc, a Hit Last Year

Aman Kyoto is a private resort nestled in a secluded forest garden at the foot of Mount Takao, continuing from Mount Hidari Daimonji in northern Kyoto. The landscape, woven from the modern architecture of Aman Kyoto, reminiscent of a hideaway, and the garden that still stands with dignity over time, allows you to experience the deeper charm of the ancient capital.
The Living Pavilion by Aman, Aman Kyoto's all-day dining venue, will offer the "Tanba Chestnut Mont Blanc," which was popular last year, for a limited time this autumn.
The freshly piped Mont Blanc cream, made with luxurious Tanba chestnuts, renowned as the finest Japanese chestnuts, envelops a sequence of delights: starting with Tanba black bean crème brûlée, followed by exquisite Japanese "Wasanbon" cream, matcha ganache, and a fluffy chestnut mousse. The base is a moist, baked hazelnut financier. Finished with a black sesame tuile, it's a visually elegant sweet.
The six layers of autumn flavors create a delicious harmony with every bite. Wine pairing by the sommelier is also recommended.
It is also served with a souvenir "Tanba Chestnut Mini Pound Cake" that allows you to fully enjoy the fluffy texture of Tanba chestnuts. Why not spend a special time savoring the flavors of autumn?
