This study investigated the potential effects of hot air-drying conditions (TL-D80°C, TL-D90°C, and TL -D100°C) of T. laurifolia tea leaves on phenolic compounds, total flavonoid content (TFC), total phenolic content (TPC), and antioxidant activities (AOA) of the infused teas. The results show that an increase in drying temperature significantly p0.05 on ABTS.+ scavenging activity. The phenolic compounds detected in infused teas were rosmarinic acid, caffeic acid, gallic acid, catechin, rutin, and quercetin.
