Tannic acid is chemically distinct from the tannins that can be found in tea.
Tea bags contain dried tea leaves, which have cell walls that allow water to pass through. When the tea bag is immersed in hot water, water flows into the tea leaves through osmosis, causing the flavors and colors to diffuse into the water, creating tea.
No.Tea contains polyphenols (aka catechins), which are a specific type of tannin. Green Tea contains more of these substances (30-42% of the extractable solids) than Black Tea or Oolong Tea. Oolong Tea has 8-20% catechin content, and Black Tea is about halfway between Green Tea and Oolong Tea in catechin content. Tea does not contain Tannic Acid. See articles "Green tea composition, consumption, and polyphenol chemistry" at PubMed (National Center for Biotechnology Information); and "The Chemistry of Tea" at HerbalGram (American Botanical Council).

The most common acids in tea are tannins, polyphenolic compounds, and caffeine. These acids contribute to the flavor profile of the tea and can vary depending on the type and processing of the tea leaves.

Avoiding foods, drinks or household products that contain citric acid is no easy task. Citric acid is an organic acid that is used as a preservative and flavoring for food and drinks as well as in many household goods, such as shampoos, cleaners and laundry detergents. People suffering from a citric acid allergy must avoid these types of products. Though many drinks on the market contain citric acid, some are free from this weak organic acid.Green TeaMost varieties of pure, all-natural green tea contain no added citric acid, according to the Green-Tea-Expert website. However, specialty varieties of green tea---such as lemon-flavored---do contain added citric acid, so it's important to check the nutritional label in this case! Read more from the related link.

All* materials are poisonous if ingested in sufficient amount. After all, water itself is toxic if one imbibes enough of it to dilute the blood thus disturbing electrolyte distribution which, in turn, affects the heart's rhythm. But to get to the original question, rhubarb leaves contain oxalic acid which is a skin irritant.Oxalic acid - as in the rhubarb leaves - should not be eaten either as there have been cases of poisoning from ingesting the leaves.
The most important stimulant in tea leaves is caffeine. Caffeine acts as a central nervous system stimulant, providing a boost in alertness and reducing fatigue. In addition to caffeine, tea leaves also contain the amino acid L-theanine, which can promote relaxation and enhance focus, creating a balanced effect. Together, these compounds contribute to the unique stimulating and calming properties of tea.
Basically, anything with caffeine, such as coffee or tea contains tanic acid.
