Storage Guidelines

Commercial storage guidance for longan fruit (not SO2-treated). Storage life depends on initial quality, maturity, cultivar and handling; this is not a household shelf-life guarantee.

Longan skin dries out and turns dull brown, very cold storage causes off flavor and dark brown peel, and warmer storage favours decay. Source: USDA Agriculture Handbook 66 (rev. 2016).
