Institucional
The AK-T Blanco is the unaged bottle: bright cooked agave, citrus and black pepper, made for margaritas, Palomas and shots with lime and salt. The 1L size gives you extra pours for a party. Machete Reposado rests in oak, which softens the agave and adds vanilla, caramel and a little spice, so it works on ice, in a tequila Old Fashioned or in a richer margarita. Both are 100% agave, which means no added cane sugar spirits, so the tequila tastes of the plant. Pick the Blanco for mixing and the Reposado for sipping or a smoother cocktail.
