What is the best way to store this ground cayenne pepper after opening to preserve its flavor and potency?

Store the vial in a cool, dry, dark place with the plastic cap tightly sealed; avoid exposure to moisture, heat or direct sunlight, and for longest freshness you can keep it in the refrigerator.
