35cl bottle. Very pale yellow/green much like wine. Aroma is sweet, honey, floral. Taste is very sweet, slightly cloying, honey, floral, with a warming boozy end. My first time drinking a pyment, it was definitely more on the mead (honey) side than wine.

Miniature from Maureen - cheers! Pale gold. Honey and lemon cough mixture up front - the kids' tickly throat type stuff. Sweetish and sticky. Light floral notes with a hint of spice. The cough mixture is a little too medicinal for my liking but it's just about ok overall.
