They have lipton in a bottle here.
When it was tested, the results came back... "This horse has diabetes." (if I may steal a quote.)

To say that I have rather strong feelings about Lipton for hot tea is like saying the Dead Sea is a wee bit salty. While Lipton's "Yellow Label" is 'almost' drinkable, regular Liptons is not!

The last time I was in the States, Lipton still wasn't selling 'Yellow Label' there. I wonder if that has changed?

Lipton is to fine tea as 'Hombre,' 'Thunderbird,' and 'Ripple' are to fine wine.

Lipton...
When I visited my parents in Israel last Easter, I bought a pack of yellow label Lipton.
I gave up after 3 cups. My wife is a much stronger character. She was trying till previous Sunday, 10th October 2010. When in the later morning I went downstairs to prepare a second cuppa for both of us I brewed the usual Yorkshire Gold for me and Lipton yellow label for her with milk of course.........that was the last straw. The whole pack went to rubbish bin. I never tried Lipton when I lived in Israel, I drank Wissotzky Tea with sugar...
An interesting fact. You cannot buy Lipton black tea in the UK (at least tea bags). Only in duty free or abroad.

Second cuppa.

Twinings Lemon & Ginger... aromatically it's nice... taste wise it's severely lacking. Might add some real lemon and real ginger into the mix and make it a crazy soup

And this is why I make my own tea bags and bring my own mug. All I need the airline for is hot water.

I drink tea every where. The office laughs at me when we go to offsite training because I bring an infuser and 4-5 loose leaf teas with me. Or I make my own tea bags.

I am on my first pot of the day. Rooibos Lemon (Tea Gschwendner).
