On the CB website description of Pirates Gold there is mention of Rolando Reyes Sr.'s attention to detail; which is true. However, Pirates Gold is not a brand of Reyes Sr. Sr. makes Puros Indios, Cuba Aliados, Genuine, and others. Pirates Gold is made by Rolando Reyes Jr. whose manufacturing has nothing to do with his illustrious father. Jr. Reyes and his father have reportedly not done any kind of business together for many years. It is rumored, regretfully, that they are not on speaking terms. Nevertheless, Pirates Gold is a decent $1.50 cigar. Jr. was hoping to get much more.
