I think in the 1970's, Kentucky's Ezra Brooks distilleries began to market its bourbon in Kachina Dolls/decanters in Arizona. This upset the hopi indians who's religion is based around Kachina Dolls. My question is was Ezra Brooks told to stop? What action was taken against them. What was the publics reaction? Is there any marketing info from Ezra Brooks? |

Your phrases "told to stop" and "action... taken against them" imply that you believe it to be illegal to do things that offend others' religious sensibilities. Fortunately (in my view), in the United States this is not the case. While there may be economic consequences for a merchant in a situation like this one, I cannot imagine that legal processes would be involved. |
