History says it was a protest against high taxes ("No taxation without representation"). In truth, it was an effort by John Adams to eliminate British competition on tea sold in America. Britain had eliminated their tea tax to corner the market in America. Adams was a tea merchant who greatly depended on the tax on tea sales to produce a profit. With no British tax, they were able to sell cheaper than Adams. So he eliminated the competition.
