Storing Tea: Keep Your Leaves Fresh for Longer
Air, light, heat and moisture are the enemies of fresh tea.
Tea loses aroma when exposed to air, light, heat and humidity.
Do this
Store leaves in an airtight, opaque container away from the stove and spices. Avoid the refrigerator, which adds moisture.
Buying in bulk
Keep a small daily tin and seal the rest. With good storage, quality black tea stays fresh for a year or more.
