I typically refrigerate them -- one can't be too careful with an anaerobic environment.

My favorite is tangerine with dried, crushed Tabasco chile. Matt ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ T.

Oh man that's a GREAT idea- thank you for posting it. Do these keep well on the shelf, or do you refrigerate them? Rob K http://www.thelash.com Celtic Mayhem From America
