Tea is a beverage highly susceptible to absorbing surrounding odors and developing mold. Tea leaves exposed to continuous direct sunlight during storage undergo accelerated internal changes, potentially leading to spoilage in very short time. There are many types of tea, and different varieties require different storage methods due to variations in moisture content, fermentation levels, and other factors. Below we briefly illustrate storage methods for several tea types.

1. Green Tea: The most prone to spoilage among all tea categories. It has relatively short storage life, with the best preservation method being sealing and refrigeration.

2. Black Tea and Oolong Tea: Both are fermented teas that age gradually, allowing longer storage duration compared to green tea. During extended storage, avoid sunlight exposure and keep away from odorous items.
