Chamomile tea bags or loose leaf tea should be stored in an airtight container in a cool, dark, and dry place, away from strong odors. This helps preserve its flavor and aroma. Avoid storing chamomile tea near heat sources or in direct sunlight, as this can degrade its quality. Properly stored, chamomile tea can maintain its quality for up to 12-18 months.
