HOW LONG DOES TABOOCHA LAST? WILL IT GO BAD?
You can keep them for up to 8 weeks in the fridge. Taboocha is raw (unpasteurized) so the fermentation continues, keeping them in the fridge will keep the fermentation to a minimal level, preserving the taste. Taboocha will not go bad even after the recommended 8 weeks but it might taste too vinegary for pleasant consumption.
大杯茶可存放多久？
大杯茶並沒有經過高溫消毒處理，室溫會令它繼續發酵，使味道變酸。所以大杯茶必須冷藏，並建議於八星期內飲用。過了此建議飲用期限的大杯茶並不會變壞（仍可安全飲用），但味道或許會變酸。
HOW LONG CAN I KEEP IT UNREFRIGERATED FOR?
Taboocha won’t go bad unrefrigerated, but since it will continue to ferment in room temperature, the taste might change over time. We generally recommend you to put them in the fridge once you have access to one - but it is ok to leave them in room temperature for half a day.
大杯茶在室溫可儲存多久？
