Just keep it with the rest of your tea. The fridge is a bad idea because of moisture and fridge odors. But, be sure to keep your matcha tin visible, so it doesn't get misplaced. Matcha goes bad quickly.

I just keep mine in the original cans with my other tea...I tend to use it up fairly quickly so going stale normally isn´t an issue.
