any tips/details/advice? the internet doesnt have much to say even though this is an ancient practice..

i have done a few hair-on goat hides with willow bark tea. i imagine its the same.

but yeah would welcome any knowledge shares from others with experience

The reason that you have not seen a lot about the tannins in pomegranate might be that not a lot of people grow pomegranate trees or it might not be real popular.

One place we lived had a pomegranate tree when I was a kid and that is the only time I have ever tasted pomegranate.

Until recently I had never seen one in a grocery store though the health benefits seem to make it more popular.

It is my hope that you will try this method and report back here at the forum as to your results.
