lovely tea, but bad reaction to it

This is a wonderfully flavored tea that really starts to shine once the tea has cooled down a bit after steeping. The apricot flavor is very mellow but pleasant. Unfortunately, I seem to have some sort of allergic reaction to this tea that causes my throat to itch and then swell up. It's happened every time I've had this tea, and has never happened before with any other teas, including other oolongs. I don't know if I got a batch that was contaminated, or if I'm allergic to some element of this particular tea's processing, but as much as I like the flavor, I won't be drinking this again.

Absolutely Excellent Oolong!

The Iron Goddess of Mercy was a superior Oolong tea. I tried it against 4 other Oolong blends from Sencha Tea Bar. It was so good that I ordered a refill of 8 ounces of Iron Goddess of Mercy
