Tucson Tea Company has been growing from a small inventory of loose leaf teas to 120 different blends, and now a physical store you can visit inside the Park Place Mall. The local tea shop has opened its very first brick-and-mortar location at 5870 E. Broadway Blvd. #310.
Tucson Tea specializes in small-batch, loose leaf teas because they “want to bring joy to tea drinkers and non-tea drinkers alike.” Another main reason is that tea found in most tea bags is usually just the “dust” of what the blend is supposed to be.

What’s in store
The list of teas is long and varied, including black teas, green teas, chai, herbal teas and tisanes, oolongs, white teas, rooibos, teas blended for making iced tea, and teas that promote health and wellness. Some teas are caffeinated, others are caffeine-free.
Even if you’re not sure what to pick, it’s likely all tea lovers will find a multitude of flavors and blends that’ll tickle their fancy.
The new shop is open 11 a.m. – 7 p.m. on Monday – Thursday, 11 a.m. – 8 p.m. on Friday – Saturday, and 11 a.m. – 6 p.m. on Sunday (the online story is open 24 hours a day).
Tucson Tea Company’s brand-new location is found inside the Park Place Mall at 5870 E. Broadway Blvd. #310. For more information, visit tucsontea.com and follow Tucson Tea Company on Facebook and Instagram.Â

More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
