Guests enjoyed a multi-course tasting paired with wine, Peruvian beer and pisco sour, while watching a fantastic Peruvian dance show. Mr. Perez also introduced Flavors of Peru’s newest cocktail, the PiscObama Sour, a perfectly refreshing take on the traditional Peruvian Pisco Sour. Mr. Perez is taking the Peruvian experience to Boston on November 12th, and Washington DC, on November 19th.
