32 tablespoon of tea has been available with one pound of tea.
3 pence per pound. It was considerably lower than the previous tax, but tricked the colonial merchants out of their money.
The colonists did see the tax on tea as a symbol of British tyranny because they had no say in whether taxes should be implemented or not. Taxation without representation was one of the significant issues that led to the American Revolution.
The cost of one pound per tea varies in each type of tea. The price that occurs the most for a 1/4 lb of loose tea on the web site teapittsburgh.com is $5.99, so a pound would cost $23.96 but $19.99 is the price marketing would choose for the price of a pound. There are other teas that cost less and some that are well over a hundred dollars a pound.
Yes it was one event that happened one evening. Actually, they were not protesting higher tea taxes, but LOWERED tea tax. The colonist had a big business in smuggling Dutch tea and when the British lowered the tax that made the Dutch tea more expensive so they protested the tax.
