Four ounces of loose – leaf tea is the ideal quantity for home storage. Once opened, loose – leaf tea is highly prone to absorbing other odors or getting damp during long – term storage, which can significantly damage its original aroma and taste.Therefore, we specifically adopt the 4 – ounce bag packaging design. Such an amount can generally last you about two months. Consuming the tea within this period can minimize the impact on its quality and prevent any waste.
