The spices come in a bag with an airtight seal. If they are vacuum sealed that should extend the shelf-life. Most spices store well for between 3-5 years. If packaged better, that can be extended for a few more years. The storage temperature of the spices is the greatest factor in ensuring a long shelf-life. We recommend keeping these items cool and dry at a constant temperature.

You will want to treat these spices the same as other spices you use in your pantry. Most will store well for up to one year, some sodium based seasonings can store even longer.
