Storage, Shelf Life & Freshness
Keep your jar tightly closed and store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and moisture. For best flavor, use a clean, dry spoon—steam and humidity can dull herbs over time. Many cooks find the blend most vibrant within several months of opening; always refer to the package for the “best before” date.
