We recommend the Japanese trap: a sweet drink and very light texture. Bread is brought in daily from the ovens of La Puerta Abierta, tea is an exclusive selection of Tomás Casa Editora de Té, and ice cream comes with Amor Casero’s signature. It’s called affogato! The best of two worlds in a cup: a ball of ice cream with espresso.

Try the iced coffee extraction, a graceful distillate. The method consists in straining the grain with a slow drip (about one drop per second) to get an extraction in eight to 12 hours. The result is a wonderful cup of low acidity or bitterness, with an inconceivable sweetness. It's alchemy!

This coffeehouse is one of the biggest supporters of the third wave of coffee (a movement that leaves promptness aside in order to offer the best sip). Order culto al café (a tribute to coffee), three cups of coffee from the dripper. Our favorite is gibraltar, a beverage similar to a cortado, and one of the best kept secrets of baristas worldwide.

First came the espresso, then a cappuccino, american and mocha. Today, thanks to the development of other styles and methods, specialty coffeehouses go beyond a light or strong flavor. Don’t miss their coffee tasting sessions.
