How long it keeps

Not yet sourced. We have not found a figure for this from an authority we are willing to quote, so the field is left empty rather than filled with a plausible guess. Go by the date on the pack.

Storage

Cool, dark. Dense vacuum-packed rye that keeps for months unopened. Sold chilled or ambient. Check which, because vacuum packing is not itself preservation.
