In this intimate tasting session, you’re welcomed into a local home in Cusco to discover the flavors, customs, and food traditions that shape everyday life in Peru.
This is a chance to slow down, taste thoughtfully, and experience Peruvian food in a more personal and meaningful way. Each tasting is presented with the stories and cultural context behind it, helping you see how local ingredients, heritage, and tradition come together at the table.
The atmosphere is relaxed, warm, and personal, like being invited to share food in someone’s home rather than joining a standard tour.
As the session unfolds, your host shares anecdotes, customs, and small details that turn each tasting into something deeper than just a flavor.
Rather than watching a staged presentation, you get a genuine glimpse into how Peruvians gather, serve, and share food with others.
Seats are intentionally limited to keep the experience personal, so early booking is recommended.

What to expect
Unlike market visits or restaurant tastings, this experience takes place inside a real local home, giving you access to dishes, stories, and rituals that most travelers never get to experience in such a personal way.
The format is intentionally intimate. With very small groups, your host can adapt each explanation to your questions and interests, turning the session into a more personal and meaningful exploration rather than a scripted presentation.
Most visitors only taste Peruvian food during their trip. Here, you go further. You discover the context behind the flavors, learn what makes them distinctive, and gain a deeper understanding of the culinary culture you’ll keep noticing throughout the rest of your time in Cusco.
