In the years leading up to the American Revolution, Charleston became the site of repeated resistance to taxed tea. On December 3, 1773, the ship London arrived in Charles Town Harbor carrying 257 chests of East India Company tea. Refusing to accept it under the Tea Act, Charlestonians left the cargo unclaimed until it was seized and stored in the Exchange Building in what is now known as the Charleston Tea Party.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eResistance continued in the months that followed. In November 1774, the ship Britannia arrived with seven chests of East India tea, which local merchants were induced to destroy, reportedly breaking open the chests and casting their contents into the Cooper River. Together, these events reflect Charleston’s sustained and deliberate stand against the Tea Act.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients: \u003c\/strong\u003eAssam Black Tea, Orange Pekoe\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize\/Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e  Loose Tea\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShelf Life:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 Years\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eHand Packaged by Oliver Pluff \u0026amp; Co. in Charleston, South Carolina\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oliver Pluff \u0026 Company","offers":[{"title":"4oz","offer_id":37436456632503,"sku":"107-OZ","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1lb","offer_id":37436456665271,"sku":"107-LLB","price":42.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0488\/2710\/5441\/files\/east_indian.png?v=1754660468","url":"https:\/\/oliverpluff.mom\/products\/east-indian-tea-tea-by-the-pound","provider":"Oliver Pluff \u0026 Co","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
