What are the best storage practices for maintaining the quality of this unrefined amaranth oil after opening?

Unrefined amaranth oil is sensitive to light, heat, and oxygen, all of which can accelerate oxidation and alter its taste. After opening, store the bottle in a cool, dark place—ideally a pantry or cupboard away from direct sunlight and heat sources. If you live in a warm climate or want extra protection, keep the oil in the refrigerator; the cool temperature slows oxidation and extends shelf life. Use a tightly sealed container to limit air exposure; if the original bottle is large, transfer a portion into a smaller dark‑glass jar for daily use. Avoid leaving the cap off for long periods, and use the oil within a few months for best flavor. When you’re ready to use it, let the bottle sit at room temperature for a few minutes so the oil reaches its optimal consistency.
