Amid the vibrant heartbeat of downtown Ho Chi Minh City, where dazzling lights shine and the city’s energy never sleeps, JW Marriott Hotel & Suites Saigon – a luxury destination renowned for its unique and indulgent escapes – proudly unveils its 2025 Mooncake Collection, Nguyet Loc Vien (The Garden of Lunar Blessings) for the Mid-Autumn season ahead.
Reviving the Timeless Tradition of Moonlit Garden Reveries
Inspired by the Vietnamese tradition where families gather in their garden to sip tea, enjoy mooncakes, and admire the full moon, this collection recreates that cherished beauty within the elegant setting of the JW Garden at JW Marriott Saigon. As the moon ascends, Nguyet Loc Vien becomes a symbol of stillness, a whisper of treasured memories, and a heartfelt wish for peace and prosperity beneath the moonlight.
The collection offers two gift box selections: the Premium Box in two colorways - Mầm Trăng (Lunar Bloom) and Nguyệt Hoa (Moon Blossom) - and the Limited Edition Box: Bội Phúc Kỳ Viên (Bountiful Moonlit Garden).
Mầm Trăng (Lunar Bloom) and Nguyệt Hoa (Moon Blossom):
The Fresh Vitality of New Life and the Radiant Splendor of Nature in Full Bloom
Highlighting the lush greenery of the JW Garden, the Lunar Bloom Gift Box embodies new life as leaves and flowers bloom under moonlight. Crafted from premium materials in elegant tones, it is both a refined gift and a sophisticated décor piece, infusing any space with freshness and vitality. A true embodiment of Nguyet Loc Vien, it is a celebration of life’s vigor within this Mid-Autumn collection.
Alongside Lunar Bloom, JW Marriott Saigon presents a second colorway, Moon Blossom, — as if the budding sprout has grown, flourished, and blossomed within the distinctive JW Garden. In sophisticated, soft pink, the gift box embodies graceful beauty and the prosperity that blooms under the moonlight, making it a meaningful offering for this festive season.
Both Lunar Bloom and Moon Blossom are priced from VND 1,588,000 (excluding tax). Each gift box includes four premium mooncakes housed in a sturdy tin, a greeting card, a mooncake-cutting set, and a durable carry bag.
Bội Phúc Kỳ Viên (Bountiful Moonlit Garden):
A Wish for Prosperity and Fulfillment
At the heart of Nguyet Loc Vien - the garden of abundance, good fortune, and reunion for the Mid-Autumn Festival lies a truly distinctive “Treasure Chest” with luxurious design and premium craftsmanship, the limited-edition Bountiful Moonlit Garden mooncake box.
Resembling an opulent jewel box, its fresh green exterior is adorned with embossed imagery of budding plants and herbs set against the backdrop of a full moon night. This gift is a symbolic expression of life’s finest blessings - prosperity, health, and cherished bonds - all carefully nurtured. When the moon reaches its fullest, it is the moment when every seed of fortune ripens into a bountiful harvest, crystallizing into complete fulfillment.
Inside are six mooncakes featuring classic flavors alongside creations infused with carefully selected premium ingredients, paired with six exquisite varieties of fine tea. This harmonious combination offers a truly elevated experience for this year’s Mid-Autumn celebration. The Bountiful Moonlit Garden Gift Box is priced at VND 2,588,000 (excluding tax).
Exquisite Flavors, Blending Tradition and Modernity
Within each premium gift box lies a story of refined taste, exceptional quality, and the dedication of JW Marriott Saigon’s five-star pastry chefs. After extensive research and meticulous curation, this year’s mooncake selection brings together the richness of traditional flavors with the sophistication of premium ingredients.
Inside the Lunar Bloom and Moon Blossom boxes, four treasures await: Eight Treasured Crab with Salted Egg, Charcoal Scallop with Salted Egg, Pandan Lotus Seed with Salted Egg, and the sumptuous Golden Lava Charcoal. Each mooncake, crafted at 180g, reveals its secret in the center — a rich salted egg yolk glowing like the harvest moon itself, except for the Golden Lava Charcoal, whose luscious molten core offers a shimmering surprise with every cut.
In the more exclusive limited-edition Bountiful Moonlit Garden, two additional refined flavors are included: Premium Bird Nest with Salted Egg and Mung Bean & Pandan with Salted Egg. These are paired with six carefully selected fine teas to elevate the moon-gazing experience — SnowShan Tea, Lotus-Scented Tea, Jasmine-Scented Tea, Thai Nguyen Green Tea, Oolong Tea, and Black Tea.
