You do not need to store in the fridge, but it will extend the shelf life. I've found large bottles of soy will last longer in the fridge. If the bottle is small or you use it quickly enough, why bother. -- Dan |

Just curious because I've never noticed that it changed no matter how long it sat around unless, of course, it was left open and evaporated. But that would just make it saltier and less likely to spoil. Oops, reread and I notice the OP was talking about low sodium which might have a shorter shelf life. However, just looking at my bottle of Marukan Ponzu (sudachi citrus marinade,) it does say 'Refrigerate after opening for quality.' -- Wilson 44.69, -67.3 |

It does seem to darken some and seems more bitter. -- Dan |

While soy sauce can be stored for a long time at room temperature it's not the same once opened. Ponzu was always kept in the refrigerator since it's not used as frequently as Shoyu. BTW, an opened Shoyu bottle in the summer WILL attract fruit flies. Musashi |
