Lisbon Lemon
A tier
Lisbon Lemon is the explicit market name for Lisbon-type fruit—thorny-tree commercial lemons with seedy, high-acid flesh and smooth rinds sold interchangeably with Eureka in many regions. The doubled name in variety lists captures labelling as consumers see it. Culinary behaviour matches Lisbon: strong true lemon. Squeeze for dressings and lemonade; slice for tea and garnish. Seeds are common—strain when needed. A backbone commodity lemon.
