The museum’s varied collection highlights Peru’s rich cultural history and artistic expression.

This 2024 opening is inspired by spells and infusions, prepared by witch doctors, as per the translation of its name, Curanderas. A basement watering hole located under Parque El Olivar, the centuries-old olive groves in San Isidro, whose roots are visible through the windows, lift your spirits with a cocktail drawing from the four elements of earth, wind, fire and water.  An all-female staff led by Carolina García helms Curanderas: order the The Chalice, whose white vermouth and sherry base is backed up by coconut milk, passionfruit and activated carbon.
