Product details
PAVILLON OF BLEND 001 – 2019 is the second label of the flagship artisanal sake BLEND 001. Inspired by the pavillon (guest house) located adjacent to the kura (sake brewery), it is a “blend” created again for wine and food lovers using Tanaka’s handcrafted sakes and blended using the same philosophy as their BLEND 001. PAVILLON is wild, full-bodied, with a mouth-filling texture and made to be enjoyed while young. It is the “homage” to the second wines of Bordeaux’s top grands crus.
PAVILLON, is a fruitier sake on the nose, with notes of stone fruits as well as mango, on an anise seed background, the signature of BLEND 001 that inspired this second label. On the palate, it is sexier, rounder, softer and more enveloping then BLEND 001, resulting in a slightly less dominant acidity. With charm to spare and coupled with a quite long finish, it reminds drinkers of new world chardonnay wines.
Similar to our BLEND 001 - 2019, this second label which again was crafted for food pairings, has a large palette of possibilities because of its duality of aromatic profiles as well as from its rounder and sexier texture, as seen in new world chardonnay wines. For PAVILLON 2019, select recipes with a creamy, even exotic texture, just as you would normally do with rich, creamy dishes for chardonnay-style wines, such as beurre blanc salmon, mushroom chicken, and a plate of soft cheeses, while also exploring Asian-style dishes based on coconut, mango, pineapple, or cilantro.
