Sangria, jamon is purely Spanish. We brought the kid a big red sombrero and a Spanish guitar. Sweets are very tasty.

Souvenirs are huge. You can order a Barcelona football kit with your last name, they will do the maximum in a couple of days.

The sombrero is, of course, cool, but what does it have to do with Spain?)) It's a Mexican hat. Although the main thing is that the child is happy))

By the way, the sweet is called "Turon" and seems to be considered a national sweet. Delicious, I recommend.

Like Turon, but I couldn't remember the whole name. We took it as a gift, everyone liked it. And as gifts, various sets of sangria were well pleased with loved ones.

As for the hat, I disagree. The origin of the word "sombrero" is unequivocally Spanish - in translation, the root of this word "sombra" means "shadow". Moreover, in Spain, the word "sombrero" refers to any wide-brimmed hat. The Spaniards are sure that they invented these hats. All souvenir shops have a huge number of these sombreras of any size and color. And if I said there that it was a Mexican hat, then they would definitely beat me :)

I brought liquor (I love it), awesome chocolate, at the sale I found myself an Italian handbag for 35 euros, and olive oil (where without it). In general, during the sales season, many things can be bought cheaper than with us.

Lillu, Sombrero was invented in Latin America, and in Cuba it is generally an official attribute of national clothes. And the fact that the word is Spanish, so sorry, all of Mexico speaks Spanish))).

You would ask, by the way, what they call it in the store, then everything would become clear to you. I can tell you: "Mexicano sombrero", because you correctly pointed out - their "sombrero" is any hat with a long brim. Women's beach hat is also a sombrero! )). Therefore, what we put into the concept of "sombrero" sounds like a phrase to them. I pointed it out to you.

Well, to bring sangria from Spain is IMHO not rational))). Jamon and all sorts of delicious sausages, everything related to FC Barcelona, souvenirs with gobies (after all, a national fun, although now banned)

Yes, let it be "Sombrero Mexicano", I'm not against it. The main thing is that they bought it as a keepsake in Spain and the child is happy!

It is not rational and difficult to bring sangria from Spain, I agree 100%! But in terms of taste, it differs from the one that is sold with us. Not much, of course, but different and not for the better. At home we tried several types of sangria, but still the taste is not the same IMHO.
