How to Store Japanese Tea (Guidelines for Best Freshness)
For the best flavor, we recommend purchasing an amount you can enjoy within about one month.
1. Air (Oxygen)
Exposure to air reduces vitamin C and catechins. Store tea in airtight containers and take out only the amount you need.
2. Moisture
When adding tea leaves to a warmed teapot, moisture on the spoon can dampen the leaves. Make sure the spoon is completely dry before use.
3. Light (UV)
Direct sunlight or clear glass containers can cause discoloration and deterioration. Keep tea in a cool, shaded, well‑ventilated place.
4. Odors
Open packages absorb surrounding smells, which can affect the tea’s quality. Seal tightly to prevent odor transfer and minimize air exposure.
5. Heat
Temperatures above 30°C can cause the tea to lose its color and freshness. Ideal storage conditions are 55–65% humidity and 0–5°C. Lower‑grade teas are generally stored at room temperature.
