The mentabrech is a tall grass species found in the humid lands and riverbanks of Vileus. It is valued locally for its intense aromatic properties.

Etymology

Uncertain. Perhaps from Latin menta ("mint").

Morphology

While thin in profile, the blades of mentabrech measure between 3 and 5 centimeters, and stand erect like ribbons of green metal. The grass is sturdy and fibrous.
