Digallic acid is a polyphenolic compound found in Pistacia lentiscus.^[1] Digallic acid is also present in the molecule of tannic acid.^[2] Digalloyl esters involve either -meta, or -para depside bonds.^[3]

Tannase is an enzyme that uses digallate to produce gallic acid. This enzyme can also be used to produce digallic acid from gallotannins.^[4]
