A Café Crème (or Caffè Crema) is a popular, milder, long-brewed coffee specialty from Switzerland/Austria, like a large, smooth espresso with a rich, even, tiger-striped foam (crema) on top, made by pushing more water through a coarser grind for a longer extraction (around 25-30 secs) than a standard espresso, resulting in a full-bodied, less bitter, often sweet-caramel flavor perfect for automatic machines.
