Real Life of Sir Thomas Lipton Tea Planter of Ceylon
Lipton, famed yachtsman and philanthropist, died October 2, 1931 in London. The press recalled his life, but his proudest title remained Tea Planter, Ceylon, after he began growing tea in 1870 when a coffee blight hit Ceylon. Lipton’s blends won top honors at world fairs and royal commissions, earning him knighthood.
