I have to let my tea cool down for 10-15 minutes after it's done steeping. If it's too hot I can barely keep it in my mouth long enough to swallow it. I usually can't taste anything for a while after subjecting myself to liquid that's too hot, which defeats the purpose of drinking the tea!

That 10-15 minutes is in my regular tall skinny mugs. Smaller mugs and wider-mouthed mugs cool down faster.
