A Correct answer
Explanation

Tannic acid, a type of tannin, is naturally found in various plant sources. Tea leaves are particularly rich in tannic acid, which contributes to their characteristic astringent taste and is responsible for the dark color in brewed black tea. While other sources like fruits (especially unripe ones), nuts, and tree bark also contain tannins, tea is one of the most well-known and commercially significant natural sources.
