It's ok, not only I don't mind, but I like exchanging opinions.

Just to be perfectly clear, you may need to know that I have no control 
on the corporate web site.
Other than that, I would say that it follows the gruop web site style. 
If you look around at other subsidiaries of Tequila in the world you'll 
get what I mean.
I am not sure that "flash instroductions are stupid". I would merely say 
that it depends:
1- on which consumer group you target
2- on each ones tastes and preferences.

Maybe they do not want Google to crawl and index the site... or maybe 
they simply do not care.

I am not sure this is very much called for you know, but whatever. It's 
your opinion and I respect it as it is.

One thing you can absolutly be sure is that Tequila Japan will *never* 
be spamming.
Not only it is not in the company policy, at the countrary, but also I 
am actively on the right side of the fence.
