Answer:
Whiskey generated so much income, that when the new nation struggled under the weight of Revolutionary War debt, Treasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton proposed a tax on domestic liquor as a means of paying it off. Congress passed the legislation, but as Loyola University-trained historian Peter Kotowski explains, the tax soon met strident opposition.
To small farmers and distillers on the frontier in western Pennsylvania, whiskey was a means of financial survival, and they weren’t about to share their hard-earned money with the federal government. They refused to pay, and began tarring and feathering tax collectors and seizing their records at gunpoint in what became known as the Whiskey Rebellion.
President Washington—who himself later made whiskey in a distillery at Mount Vernon after he left office—initially tried to quell the uprising with a 1792 proclamation that admonished the farmers to comply. But two years later, after the malcontents set fire to the Pittsburgh home of a tax official, Washington didn’t have much choice but to respond with force.

The statement that BEST explains who the Daughters of Liberty were and the role they played in the American Revolution is "They were women who boycotted British goods, instead, producing the goods they needed at home."
All American colonists participated in the claim for liberty and independence. Men formed the Sons of Liberty. Women formed the Daughters of Liberty. This female group was formed to protest against heavy taxation from the British crown. They were angry when the English imposed the Townshend Acts of 1767, that charged taxes for imports such as lead, tea, glass, and paper. They always supported the Patriotic cause.
