Many matcha brands on store shelves have a much longer latency between manufacture and sale. Koyamaen is especially cautious in this regard.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"gmail_default\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"gmail_default\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis matcha has been sealed with a nitrogen-flushing process that removes excess oxygen from inside the package. That means it's effectively in suspended animation, unable to oxidize, until the tin or bag is opened. \u003cb\u003eIn our experience, matcha that's stored in these sealed conditions retains optimal freshness for 1 year after milling.\u003c\/b\u003e Once that seal is broken, we recommend finishing the matcha within six months, and storing it in the refrigerator between sessions to maintain the best flavor.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"In Pursuit of Tea","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48261525504223,"sku":"GJM32-KINRIN-P","price":48.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0464\/5424\/3494\/files\/DSC_1191.jpg?v=1769809768"}],"url":"https:\/\/inpursuitoftea.com\/collections\/ipot-flash-sale.oembed?page=2","provider":"In Pursuit of Tea","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
