★The Story of Matcha ②
Matcha is sensitive to temperature, humidity, light, and odor. In other words, high temperature and humidity will alter the flavor of Matcha, and exposure to light will cause it to fade.
Low temperatures are more effective in preserving quality, so freezing or refrigerating is recommended. In this case, be sure to return the tea to room temperature before opening the package.
