Does Tea Go Bad Davidstea

Does tea expire? No, tea does not expire; it just loses freshness over time.

CAN expired tea make you sick?

If the tea has been stored correctly away from light and moisture then it will be OK to consume however not at its best. Tea past its due date may manifest as having a stale dull taste, with little life to the brew.

How do I know if my tea has gone bad?

  • You notice a dank, pungent smell coming from your tea.
  • You find mold in your tea, even if it’s just on a few leaves.
  • All flavor and scent is gone from your tea.
  • The tea is over 3 years old and has been opened before.
  • Tea expiring VS tea losing flavor.
