Spanish term or phrase: agustera
I believe this has to do with "gusto", enjoying oneself or something related. I need a nice way of saying it in a text from Spain describing the setting of a flamenco show.

"Es la hora del vermut": elegante expresión y maravillosa excusa para provocar un encuentro, una inspiración, unas risas, una ‘agustera’ y un abrir el apetito sin igual.

Thanks!

Explanation:
It's not in Reverso or DRAE, so I think it's a coinage. This is my educated guess.

comfortable conviviality


Explanation:
"Una agustera", or rather "un estar a gusto", brings to mind the definition of "hygge", 'a quality of cosiness and comfortable conviviality that engenders a feeling of contentment or well-being'.
