Malaga-style coffee
Type
Gastronomy & Flavors
In Málaga, coffee isn’t just coffee—it's a matter of precision and personality. Locals use a unique system to order it exactly how they like: from a "solo" (100% coffee) to a "nube" (a cloud of coffee in mostly milk), with several options in between like "mitad" (half-and-half) or "sombra" (a shadow of coffee). This playful scale reflects the city's relaxed yet exacting café culture. Don't be surprised if your coffee order in Málaga comes with a lesson in local flavor!
