Keeping Tea Fresh

RE: Keeping Tea Fresh Post By wataut (Guest Post) (06/28/2008) I'm looking to store loose leaf teas in tins. What is the best option for ensuring it stays fresh for a long time?

It has the airtight lid. The rest of the box I store in the frig. Once when I had some tea bags stored in a cabinet for too long, they got buggy UGH!

I store all but one box in the freezer. One box fills up a canister, with the remainder of the box going into the fridge. Just make sure not to spill anything on or around them.
