Preserve Tea's Freshness And Flavor By Storing It Properly.

Keep it airtight 

Store tea in an airtight container made of tin, ceramic, or glass with a tight-sealing lid to prevent exposure to air, preserving flavor and aroma. 

Protect it from light 

Store tea in a dark and cool place, away from direct sunlight, to protect it from light-induced degradation, ensuring flavor and freshness preservation.

Control humidity 

Prevent moisture absorption, mold growth, and flavor deterioration by storing tea in a dry environment, avoiding high-humidity areas like kitchens or bathrooms. 

Avoid strong odors 

Store tea away from strong odors, using odor-neutralizing materials like activated charcoal or silica gel packs in the container to maintain freshness and prevent flavor contamination.

 Use opaque containers 

Consider using opaque bags or wrapping for tea stored in clear containers to shield it from light exposure, preserving flavor and aroma.
