ABSTRACT: Agarwood leaves

isoflavones that can be use as a brewed beverage. That has a function as an
antioxidant. The objective of this research was to determine the consumen
preference on agarwood leaf tea compared other tea on the market. Types of tea
on the market were used as a comparison is C. cinencis tea and soursop leaf
tea. This study was made in 4 stages i.e plant sampling, making agarwood leaf
tea, determination of tannin content, and evaluation of consumen preference on
agarwood leaf tea by hedonic test on taste, aroma, and colour using 1-5 scale
i.e (very unlike-very like) for agarwood leaf tea at 0 and 2 month of storage.
The highest to lowest of tannin content was found in C. cinencis tea
(0,5464%),agarwood leaf tea (0,2571%), and soursop leaf tea (0,0643%). In the 0
month storage preference level of society against agarwood leaf tea is favored
as seen from the scores obtained in terms of taste, aroma and colour that is
3,72; 3,10; 2,42. For the agarwood leaf tea that has been storage for 2 month,
agarwood leaf tea still favored where the score for taste, aroma and colour
