In reply to Andy Seabrook. Andy, Ha ha! Chicha is an acquired taste, for sure. But Peruvian cuisine is becoming quite world renowned; don't judge it on chicha alone!

Interesting. I always thought the broom handle with the red plastic bag meant “This is a bar” but now I realize it means something even more specific – a saliva-y beverage is waiting for me inside.

I would give it a go. I did drink the sour toe cocktail in Dawson, Yukon which is served with a real human toe in a shot! Also got Hyderized in Alaska…google it

Cheers Nora

Hey Ryan – LOL! You’re funny. Petting tigers vs drinking chicha…that’s a tough decision! 😉
As for the alleyway, no, it’s in Pisac. But a lot of these places have the same charm, don’t they?
Glad you enjoyed this post!

In reply to Jaci.

Hi Jaci,
Yes the saliva aspect is a bit of a put-off, and you just don’t know if the brew you’re drinking is of that ilk or not. But hey – I generally try to do as the locals do, and if they’re drinking it…. 😉
