As the title reads, Altadis has officially filed a lawsuit against Pete Johnson and Pepin Garcia. And since most of us here agree that the suit is b.s. and a way for a huge corporation to bully a small company using its vast resources to get what it wants. The question now becomes how can we influence Altadis and perhaps punish them for what's happening? I have gotten several e-mails and invites on boycotting Altadis group. Maybe we could tell other people in the local b&m about this and urge them to boycott altadis as well. It's not like they are missing out on great products. What do you guys recommend?

Sounds like a reasonable plan of action to me. Ironic that they would file a suit when they are the biggest brand name stealers in the cigar world.

Full disclosure, I have been "boycotting" Altadis for over a year, because most of their cigars survive on name recognition only, and I haven't had a good one in a loooong time.

This will not be difficult for me.
