Storage Tips:
Matcha is super delicate, and should be stored airtight in cool, dry place and away from light to keep optimal freshness. We kindly ask you not to store in transparent containers.
Opened matcha should be used within 1 month. Unopened matcha can be kept in the fridge for 6 months. Anything beyond that time frame risks matcha deterioration in quality and taste.
