The act that placed new taxes on silk, wine, coffee, pimento, and indigo is the Townshend Acts, enacted by the British Parliament in 1767. These acts aimed to raise revenue from the American colonies and assert British authority. The resulting discontent contributed to the growing tension between the colonies and Britain, ultimately leading to the American Revolution.
