Tanning extracts of vegetable origin; tannins and their salts, ethers, esters and other derivatives

It splits three ways: quebracho extract and wattle extract each get their own line, and everything else falls under 3201.90, which separates tannic acid of 50% or more strength, a named list of other vegetable extracts, and a residual basket.
