November 8 – National Cappuccino Day!

Buongiorno! It's Cappuccino Day!

Every year on November 8, coffee lovers celebrate National Cappuccino Day. And let's face it, some celebrations are simply too good to miss.

Cappuccino is one of Italy's most famous contributions to coffee culture. Its magic lies in its simplicity: a good espresso, steamed milk, and a layer of delicate, velvety microfoam.

Did you know that the word cappuccino has something to do with a hood?

The name comes from the Italian word cappuccio, meaning hood, and is associated with the Capuchin friars. The brown colour of their robes was said to resemble coffee mixed with milk.

In Italy, cappuccino is traditionally a morning drink, often enjoyed with something sweet. But we believe there's never really a wrong time for a good cappuccino.

And at Hidden Giraffe, we have one more little reason to celebrate. With a little imagination, you can discover all sorts of things in that delicate milk foam. Perhaps even a giraffe. After all, you never know what's hiding at Hidden Giraffe.

So, on November 8: Buongiorno, cappuccino!

Come and celebrate with a good cup of coffee.
