Tinto is not wine
- Day of the journey
- 20
Tinto here is a small black coffee. It travels the streets in thermos flasks, arrives in a cup the size of a thimble and costs a few hundred pesos.
Vino tinto is red wine, and this is the trap: order it and a bottle arrives. For a glass you have to ask for a copa de vino tinto. A mistake you make once.
