The rebels during the Whiskey Rebellion were commonly referred to as "Whiskey Rebels." They were farmers and distillers in Western Pennsylvania who protested against the federal excise tax on whiskey imposed in 1791. Their opposition was rooted in the belief that the tax disproportionately affected small producers and rural communities. The rebellion ultimately highlighted tensions between federal authority and local interests.

The primary complaint of the rebels in the Whiskey Rebellion, which occurred in the 1790s, was against the federal excise tax on whiskey. Farmers, particularly in western Pennsylvania, relied on whiskey production as a key source of income and viewed the tax as an unfair burden imposed by a distant government. They believed the tax disproportionately affected small producers and threatened their livelihoods, leading to protests and violent confrontations with federal authorities. Ultimately, the rebellion highlighted the tensions between rural interests and federal authority in the early United States.
