Tannins are water-soluble polyphenols that are present in many plant foods. The aim with this study was to give an overview on the amount of tannin present in various tea samples. A simple and accurate complexometric method is used to determine tannin. Most of the ingredients commonly found in tea samples do not interfere with the determination. Several tea samples were analysed for their tannin content in present study.
