Sobremesa (Spanish: “upon the table”) is the Spanish tradition of relaxing at the table after a meal.[1]
During sobremesa, conversation is freely had.[1] Depending on the habits of the area or country in question, coffee, tea, or a small liqueur or aguardiente (in a shot glass) is generally served, or a cigar may be smoked.
The 'sobremesa hour' is one of Spain's main TV primetimes.[2]
