The stem looks like a mint. They tend to have flat sides, square if cut in sections. I think it was just a mint added to a tea.

I was there a while back and hd the same tea and have been searching for this plant ever since. But I don't think it is Laburnocytissus. The locals called it "Munyi" I think.

Have you had any more luck tracking it down? I thought it had a wonderful flavor (leaves tasted like sage and twigs like mint) and would love to grow it at home.
