Having an event and want to share great tea with your friends? It would be an honor to serve tea at your wedding reception or ceremony, dinner party, corporate event, or other private event. You will have your choice of preparation (Chinese or English) and a selection of teas of your choice. Prices start at $45 per hour.
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 this formal tea education with the International Tea Academy and becoming a Certified Tea Sommelier in December 2025.
