Traditional Chinese Tea...
...for Any Occasion
With a focus on Chinese-style tea, or gong fu cha, join me for a small-group tasting every month. Do you want to quietly meditate and enjoy mindful self-cultivation away from a screen? Or do you want to have a conversational environment to spend time with friends? Our professional sommelier will facilitate an organic space where everyone feels welcome. Email us to recommend a location!
Having an event and want to share great tea with your friends? Allow me the honor of serving tea at your wedding reception or ceremony, dinner party, corporate event, or other private event. We will develop a curated, bespoke menu that is unique to your tastes. Prices start at $150.
Matthew Anderson has been studying gong fu cha since 2021. In 2025, he began to share tea with colleagues at Gilead Sciences, Inc., in La Verne during his M.S. Biotechnology internship. Soon, he expanded his portfolio to include private events and outdoor tea services with a local hiking group. He founded Anderson Tea Works after completing his formal tea education with the International Tea Academy and becoming a Certified Tea Sommelier in December 2025.
