The shelf life of tea is related to the variety of tea, and different teas have different shelf lives. For example, Pu 'er tea and Anhua black tea are fermented products, and the shelf life can reach 10 ~ 20 years.
The key to tea preservation lies in the water content of tea itself and the moisture-proof performance of packaging materials used. If the water content of tea can be kept below 7%, tea will not deteriorate within 12 months.
To remove moisture from tea leaves, you can use an oven, microwave oven or wok, but be careful not to have odor and impurities. After the tea leaves are fried, they should be thoroughly cooled and packaged for preservation.
