Leave tea off point of beard (6)
I believe the answer is:
goatee
'beard' is the definition.
(I know that goatee is a type of beard)
'leave tea off point' is the wordplay.
'leave' becomes 'go' (to go is to depart or leave).
'off' is an anagram indicator.
'point' becomes 'e' (compass point).
'tea' is an anagram of 'ate'.
'go'+'ate'+'e'='GOATEE'
'of' is the link.
(Other definitions for goatee that I've seen before include "Tuft on the chin" , "Kind of beard" , "Type of beard" , "Style of beard" , "growth" .)
