The British East Indian Company was in big trouble financially. All they had left worth anything was a lot of tea they wanted to unload in America.

Tax was very miniscule but Britain wanted to show that the Colonies were still subject to the rule of Parliment. So the tax was placed on tea. Tea was cheap and tax neglible. However the principle of the tax made radical Colonists angry.
