Maisha Rahman, the first female tea auctioneer in Bangladesh, shared her perfect tea-making method, and unsurprisingly, there was no mention of the humble teabag
A professional tea taster has revealed the ideal method for making a cup of tea and even suggested looking to a famous British author for inspiration. As the first female tea auctioneer in Bangladesh, it’s safe to assume that 33-year-old tea taster Maisha Rahman knows a thing or two about making a decent brew.
