Italian espresso
Concentrated coffee serving
Italian espresso is espresso made in the Italian style—a small, concentrated shot of coffee extracted under high pressure, typically served in a demitasse cup.
The phrase is somewhat redundant since espresso originated in Italy, but it emphasizes authenticity or traditional preparation: The café prides itself on serving Italian espresso.
Sometimes used to distinguish from larger, diluted American coffee drinks.
