Meet Our Staff

Chris is a punk rock farmer and tobacco man. When he isn't blending pipe tobaccos at Boyd's, he is tending to his tomatoes and caring for his chickens. He also maintains our walk-in humidor as if it were his own garden, keeping all the stogies happy and humid. Chris' words of cigar wisdom: "Always, every time, grab the best stick in your humidor. Unless it needs age, don't put off until tomorrow what you can smoke today."

Charity is a Midwest farm girl who moved out west in 1994. With a degree in design, and a history in buying and retail, Charity loves to keep the elegant gifts in our store fresh and hip. With a passion for horses, dogs, and camping, Charity enjoys a good cigar or a nice pipe around the campfire under the stars. Yeehaw!

Justin Webster, an active duty member of the military and Harley man, has been coming to Boyd's since 2006, and is now part of our team. Originally from Missouri, he enjoys hunting, fishing, and anything outdoors. Justin also enjoys a variety of cigars, is very vocal, and loves to laugh and have a good time. He will make you feel right at home in our store. Come by and talk shop, smoke, and firearms with him.

After serving eight years in the United States Marine Corps and working in and around the Pentagon for 16 years, our newest associate Annie Brammer returned to the Golden State. She is a great listener and will employ her military training to help you make a choice from our vast selection. Although a cigar novice, she believes that every cigar smoker deserves a comfortable environment to enjoy a premium hand rolled cigar.

Jerry is a product of the sixties. He has degrees in English, History, and Liberal Studies from CSU Chico. He taught elementary school for over twenty years in Paso School District. Jerry plays golf and reads copiously. You’ll usually find him smoking a MUWAT (My Uzi Weighs a Ton) and drinking a micro brew. If you’re a poker fan, he’s the one to talk to about hitting that inside straight, or filling a flush on the river.

Hailing from Salt Lake City, Utah, Jordon is the newest member of the Boyd’s team. Taking to the leaf at an appropriately young age, he’s immersed himself in much of what tobacco has to offer and aims to share his passion with anyone who may need a hand. A hitherto dormant wine-enthusiast, hiker, and cigar guy, he’s excited to be a part of the Paso Robles community. Introduce yourself when you stop in!
