Why Buy Loose Herbs from House of Serenity?

How to Store Your Herbs

Store dried herbs in an airtight glass jar or resealable bag in a cool, dark, and dry cupboard, away from heat and sunlight. Stored this way, most dried herbs keep their best flavor and aroma for about one year, and powders for about six months. Always use a clean, dry spoon to keep moisture out.
