caffe/espresso
Explanation:
please note that caffe has an accent like this ` over the last e. Also if you go in a "bar" (un bar italiano, not an American bar) you can ask for "un espresso" (jumper cable coffee, I also call it in the morning), that delicious concentrate which you drink in two gulps.
