antica

There is some humorous graffiti in the latrine at Ostia Antica (pictured in the article).

Where Rome is crowded and super busy, Ostia Antica was relatively calm and low-stress.

I think anyone could immediately appreciate the difference between a negroni made with Antica vs.

A Woodford + Carpano Antica Manhattan is not going to optimize at the same ratio as a Basil Haden + Dolin Rouge Manhattan, for example.

The Antica lends a far deeper flavour vs.

È quindi una tecnica naturale di guarigione antica che stimola i punti chiave sulla superficie della pelle per indurre le difese naturali di auto-capacità curative.

In order to bring it from the realm of metaphysics (matters of souls, virtues, etc - read Thomas Acquinus and continue towards antica via Augustinus to better understand what metaphysics is and how it is different from scientific knowledge), you have to propose both a full hypothesis on how this "brain as a receiver" works, and a set of reproducible experiments to show your theory to be true.

As an aside, if you ever visit Rome take an hour train ride to Ostia Antica.

A friend used to run a restaurant there called l'Antica Abbazia several years ago, and it was frequented by all the fliers.

Carpano (at least Carpano Antica, which I think it their common vermouth) is also a very strong flavor.
