I went in looking for quality pipe tobaccos and I was shockingly NOT disappointed! The other locations have cheap bulk stuff and codger blends in pouches, but nothing else. THIS location in Windham is worth the drive since they had tinned blends from Cornell & Diehl, Sutliff, MacBaren and others. The prices are quite a bit higher than what you’d pay ordering online, but there are so many weird laws about “flavored tobacco products” that end up getting applied to pipe tobacco that many of these blends would get lumped into that category and thus you wouldn’t be able to order them by mail. Also, most of the tins already have a year or so of aging according to their date stamps, so that definitely makes this a great spot to pick up some new things. I don’t go in for cigars or cigarettes, so I can’t speak to that side of the business, and I will say that the staff were not particularly knowledgeable and their friendliness varied widely from person to person, but I was too enraptured by my choices to really care. Luckily some of my work puts me near Windham every other week or so, and I don’t mind paying a higher price to keep them stocking these items. I just wonder about how large the pipe smoking population is in and around Windham, and why don’t I ever see if those folks out...

Read moreUPDATE The last two (2) times I went into the Windham store, they tried to charge me MORE than the sticker price on a bundle of cigars. They said that prices must've gone up and gave me some BS line about inventory. I'm thinking, ok, you paid X price to acquire these sticks and once that price is paid it cannot go up. Who wants to be taken like that? So illegitimate that I haven't been back in since. Greed has no place in my tobacco order. Boycott Cigaret Shopper Windham!!
Cnservative business hours make for a particularly difficult time trying to buy cigars. Already tough enough in Maine with such limited availability that a business with an otherwise great selection would be closed...
