Blargh! I hate cold tea...except ice tea and then it has to be sweetened (I don't get how Americans can drink it unsweetened).
If it's something strong like orange pekoe I can definitely taste when it's been steeping too long. I read somewhere that it's the tannins in the tea that can give it that bitterness.
