Meaning

An affectionate Cuban word for a close, lifelong friend. "Mi consorte" is the one who sticks with you through good and bad, who you share a conversation, a bottle, and everyday struggles with. One of the most iconic terms for male friendship in Cuban Spanish, used naturally across Havana, Santiago, and the whole island.
