Some matches are meant to be. That's certainly the case with one of Tokyo's most iconic hotels, The Okura Tokyo, and celebrated Belgian Royal Warrant chocolatier Pierre Marcolini with the release of the Silver Heart Coffret ed. 2020 from Feb. 1 to March 31 (¥3,000 plus consumption tax) — just in time for Valentine's and White days.
The collaboration, a limited edition seven-piece chocolate assortment, is presented in an elegant silver heart-shaped box. Yet it's what's inside that counts, with original chocolate developed by Marcolini especially for The Okura Tokyo, Original Milk and Original Matcha, making an appearance alongside a blushing ruby raspberry heart, a gold-flecked, disk-shaped chocolate and a whimsical animal-shaped caramel.
The Silver Heart Coffret ed. 2020 is available for purchase from Chef's Garden delicatessen in The Okura Prestige Tower, revamped and newly opened since the hotel, formerly known as the Hotel Okura Tokyo and renowned for its Japanese modernist architecture, completed major renovation works in 2019.
