Lol, it's one of the MAJOR tea brands here, so it's very familiar to 
us. There are other brands like Tetley, Stash, Red Rose, Luziane, 
Bigelow, Celestial Seasonings (primarily herbal teas), etc. But good 
ol' Lipton is the granddaddy of the "flo-thru" tea bag. 

I like Twinings too and I can find that in my local supermarket 
(thankfully). Sometimes I can find Fortnum & Mason, Taylor's of 
Harrogate, etc. too. Of course, both brands are easier to find in the 
tea bag form than they are in the loose form. 

I like Darjeeling, English Breakfast, Assam and Keemun. Some of the 
perfumed ones are alright, such as Jasmine. Earl Grey is a little too 
aromatic for my taste.
