    It's surprisingly good, especially after lunch. But it's generally older men's thing, not very common among youngsters.

      Sounds like an italian version of a 4loco, but like chill and calm

    Ah an Italian… i occasionally had that, after lunch, with sambuca, great way to trash your afternoon if you’re not used to strong alcoholic drinks.

    Funny story: i had my first caffé corretto when i was like 15 and skipped school to go around the city with a girl and a few friends (male and female). We went for a coffee and she had a caffé corretto so OBVIOUSLY i had one as well, and then i spent the rest of the morning doing my best pretending to hold alcohol well and having a great time. Oh to be young again.

    In Portugal we have "café com cheirinho", coffee with a nice smell. Coffee is drunk with bagaço, aguardente or medronho.

    Interesting how other countries also have this culture
