My Jar has leaked during transit?
If the jar has leaked it sounds like some gas may have built up in the jar which can challenge the seal on the lid resulting in a little bit of juice escaping. Far from ideal I know and something we strive to avoid but when dealing with live fermented products unfortunately we occasionally experience this. The product is perfectly safe to consume.
"What is the recommended shelf life of your products, and how should they be stored to ensure freshness?"
Our products are best enjoyed within 14 days of opening as indicated on the label. However, if stored properly, they can last for several weeks. To extend the shelf life of our products, it's essential to replace the lid after each use, keep the contents submerged in their juices, and use clean utensils for serving. You may store our products at room temperature or in the fridge, depending on your preference. Since our products are naturally fermented, they are self-preserving, and you can be confident that they won't spoil easily.
