You've taken the time to source the perfect tea and had a petite party for the very first sip. But now it's time to let the tea rest next to its fellow friends, however, the airtight foil bag doesn't fit with your kitchen style. Rather than hide it away in the cabinet to get lost with your pasta and peas, I recommend collecting airtight jars and containers for practical and pretty storage. While glass is gorgeous, you don't want to expose your tea to light (or air/moisture). Ceramic and tin are my go-to options, especially if they have a touch of gold or vintage flair. Opt for chalkboard jars (like the one above) so that you can easily spot your favorite leaf without breaking into the top. How do you store your tea?
Love, love your blog and am surprised I never came across it before last night. Love all things tea!
I store my loose tea in old tins but will settle for a pretty glass jar.

Smart. I didn't know about not exposing it to light.
