This tax disproportionately affected small farmers in the western frontier, who relied on whiskey production as a significant source of income. The unrest culminated in the Whiskey Rebellion, where farmers protested against what they viewed as oppressive taxation and government overreach. The rebellion highlighted tensions between rural communities and the federal government.
