At dawn, 45 tons of tea worth an estimated 10,000 pounds were poured into the waters of Boston Harbor.
It was an act of protest due to George III, that increased several taxes on the colonies, to recover from the expenses that the Seven Years war produces.
That taxed the importation from the metropolis of different products, including tea, to benefit the British East India Company, whom the Colonist boycotted by buying tea from the Netherlands.
Many Colonist, in Boston and other parts of the country, have sworn not to take such a drink as a sign of protest, prefering other herbal infusions and coffee.
Many of these Colonist believe that this is not a simple protest but the beginning of a great revelation.
