Etiqueta Negra (Spanish for "Black Label") is a monthly Peruvian magazine of narrative journalism style, also published in Panama and Chile. Founded by Huberth and Gerson Jara and currently edited by Eliezer Budasoff, it counts with the contribution of renowned writers, journalists and artists of Latin America. Inspired by American The New Yorker, Etiqueta Negra publishes chronicles, essays and reports. The magazine is headquartered in Lima and is published by Pool Producciones.

From its beginning in 2002, first bimonthly and then monthly, each Etiqueta Negra issue focuses on a main subject (cinema, erotism, fashion, cuisine, etc.) from several perspectives and using a number of techniques: from the photographic chronicle to the essay, from the report to the interview. Julio Villanueva Chang was the first editor-in-chief.

The Fall 2007 issue of the Virginia Quarterly Review dedicated to South America was nominated for the National Magazine Award. That issue was edited and published by VQR in alliance with Etiqueta Negra.
