For the best quality, we recommend using the soy sauce packets within one year of its production. We started printing the best by date on the back side of our packets in 2018. If your packet has only a production code or no printing on the back side, then the product was made over four years ago and should be discarded. Soy sauce packets may be stored at room temperature, away from heat, until its best by date.
While we recommend our regular soy sauces be refrigerated for quality, our less sodium soy sauces and other sauces should be refrigerated after opening. For the freshest tasting sauce, we recommend using the sauces within one month of opening.
