Hi @anmitsu! No, similar leaf but totally different flavor! I mean, I bought one pack of "Shiso" at Asian market in Berlin, I was really happy I could find it but... it doesn't smell shiso at all... I guess it was probably nettle leaf... jaaa... a bit bitter, not so great taste :(
And wow... we can see such a tall one in Russia too? I didn't know that... yep, I once grabbed it directly by my hand because I didn't expect it has needles and I got injured^^;
