ボストン茶会事件・1773年12月16日

Boston Tea Party December 16, 1773

Mastermind of the Boston Tea Party In the early hours of December 16th, 1773, in the harbor of Boston, Massachusetts, USA, a group of people opposed to the colonial policy of the British Parliament boarded a ship of the East India Company loaded with tea and threw the tea boxes into the sea. The mastermind behind this incident is Sammel Adams (1722-1803). Born in Boston, he is the man who made America independent. By excluding tea from its home country, the East India Company, it blocked the taxes and policies imposed by Britain, and stood up for American independence. It is no exaggeration to say that black tea was the catalyst for independence. Despite boycotting England, George Washington (1732-1799), who became the first president of the United Kingdom, was an unparalleled tea party. It is said that he was a proud drinker of black tea. By the way, Samuel Adams also had a brewery on his father's side, and was called "Sam the Maltmaker" when he was young. For that reason, even now, when you go to Boston, you can still find craft beer with a picture of Samuel Adams on it. . In February of this year, we published a book titled “The Art of Black Tea That Deepens Your Life in 30 Minutes” (Poplar Publishing). In my book, I introduce the people involved in the Tea Incident, including this Samuel Adams, as historical figures from a human perspective. . .
