Diffusion of high concentration to low concentration.

Add hot water to leaves, the leaves contain a high concentration, this diffusion into the water which has a low concentration

Tea contains tannin. The longer it is left or if heated the tannin concentration increases. Tannin is bitter.

Use a tea that brews slowly (like Darjeeling) and with large leaves.

If you've ever had chai in India, that is stewed with lots of sweetened condensed milk to sweeten it. Some like it. Not me.

It stews because you leaves it too long
