Diluted espressos since aroma is horrible (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

americanos

'diluted espressos' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'since aroma is horrible' is the wordplay.
'is horrible' indicates an anagram.
'since'+'aroma'='sincearoma'
'sincearoma' anagrammed gives 'AMERICANOS'.

(Another definition for americanos that I've seen is " Coffees".)
