STORING TEA

Things you want to avoid when storing tea:

· Air
· Light
· Moisture
· Excessive heat

Store your tea in an air-tight, opaque container away from moisture or heat. The black bag your Tea & Tradition’s tea comes in is a good storage container. You want to make sure the bag is tightly sealed. If you are purchasing large quantities (+4 ounces) I would recommend purchasing smaller tea tins (available for $3.50 by calling us when placing your order – they will be on the website in the near future) to store the tea you will use everyday and keeping the larger quantity sealed in the bag without exposing to constant light and air.

You may not want to store you tea with your spices because it is extremely absorbent and will absorb the aromas of what is around it.
