Storage Instructions

Product Characteristics	Matcha is a fine powder, making it highly susceptible to light, oxygen, humidity, heat, and surrounding odors, which can easily cause its color (green) to fade and its flavor to deteriorate quickly. To maintain quality, "light-blocking," "airtight," "low temperature/low humidity," and "deodorized environment" are key.
Appropriate Container	An opaque, airtight container (screw-top can + inner lid) is recommended. Handle quickly to avoid excessive outside air exposure during opening and closing, and absolutely do not insert a damp tea scoop or spoon. By preparing a separate "working can (approx. 20-30g)" for the amount you plan to use, you can minimize the deterioration of the main can.
Temperature / Humidity	Unopened: Refrigeration (5-10℃) is standard. Freezing is also acceptable for long-term storage. After opening: Refrigeration is safest. If opened immediately after taking it out, condensation can moisten the powder, so keep it sealed at room temperature for 1-2 hours until the can's surface temperature matches room temperature before opening. Humidity: Low humidity (ideally below 60%). Since odors can easily transfer in a refrigerator, implement odor control with double sealing (aluminum bag + can) or a zip-lock bag + can. Avoid proximity to strongly scented foods (pickles, spices, etc.).
Best Before	Best within 10-14 days after opening, and consume within 3-4 weeks at the latest. For bulk purchases, divide into smaller portions, only handling the working can, and store the rest sealed in the refrigerator (or freezer). When using frozen portions, ensure to prevent condensation (return to room temperature before opening).
Shelf Life	Indicated on each product package

※ Please consume as soon as possible after opening. Flavor may change depending on storage conditions.
