Cusco Bar: La Chupiteria (The Shot Bar)

During my stay in Cusco, Peru I got to meet some really neat college students from Wagner University who were working as archeologists on an site near the city. Each time that we went out to experience the night life of Cusco, it was tradition that we started the night at La Chupiteria (The Shot Bar). The bar is about a block and a half from the Plaza De Armas on Tecsecocha 400 which you can get to by taking Procuradores or Tigre.

The drink options here are just about endless with great deals on Tequila, Rum, Vodka and Whiskey. Drinks run from $1.50 to $7.50 which include flaming shots. If you go with a group be sure to ask about the shotski which is a ski with four holes to place the shots in and a group does a shot together.

I highly recommend getting a Teapot if you are going with a group because first of all they are delicious and second, its a great deal. The four options of the teapot range at $18.00 - $20.00 and split between four people its at four and a half shots per person. Each teapot comes with two different liquors and flavorings. Its the best bang for your buck and its fun to pour the shots from a teapot.

The Shot Bar is a great place for a small group to start out your nights, spend a night or even finish your nights at. Great atmosphere, fun bartenders and of course...SHOTS!
