An exclusive retreat for the discerning cigar aficionado — where premium tobacco, exceptional spirits, and refined company converge. A private House on North State Street, in the heart of Downtown Jackson.
“The idea of creating The Continental has been in my heart and mind for nearly five years. I came across the house that has now become the home of The Continental — and I knew instantly it was the perfect fit.”— Terris C. Harris, Founder
The Continental Cigar Club was founded by Terris C. Harris on a clear vision: a space where professionals could gather, converse, and connect — where the timeless ritual of a fine cigar becomes the natural occasion for camaraderie and culture.
The House itself — a restored Victorian near the State Capitol — was found, not built. As Harris tells it, everything aligned seamlessly, as if the room had been waiting for this exact moment.
A rotating reserve of rare and limited-release cigars from Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, and Honduras — selected by our resident sommelier, never by algorithm.
A members-only Victorian lounge in the heart of Jackson — a climate-controlled humidor, private parlors, a paneled dining room, and a library of paired spirits maintained for the membership.
Monthly tastings, single-estate dinners, and gatherings that mark the calendar — held in the company of those who understand the value of an evening unhurried.
Membership is by application. Each tier includes access to The Continental's amenities and the company of fellow members.
A membership of professionals, hosts, and friends — gathered for tastings, anniversaries, and the unhurried evenings that anchor the calendar.
A restored Victorian on North State Street — paneled libraries, gilded mirrors, and the deliberate quiet of company well-chosen, set just steps from the State Capitol.
— Capital City Flagship —
The original room. Tufted Chesterfields gathered around a cast-iron fireplace, a crystal chandelier overhead, and a bar of allocated bourbon, cognac, and rare rum. A private dining room, a parlor for tastings, and an outdoor terrace for the warmer hours.
Reserve a VisitHand-rolled in exclusive partnership with The Continental Cigar Factory in the Dominican Republic — distinctive flavor profiles, smooth and creamy texture, exceptional draw, and a consistently even burn. Available to members in the lounge or by private allocation.
$30
Crafted exclusively for Terris C. Harris. A refined indulgence from beginning to end — cured leather and raisin, with hints of cayenne pepper spice and the meticulous touch of aged Scotch whiskey barrels.
$15
Captivating from the first encounter — rich coffee accented by hazelnut, a creamy texture, and nuanced notes of assorted nuts and dry wood. A measured, very good smoking experience.
$18.50
Smooth and creamy — sugarcane, fresh almonds, and hints of rum. The first draw reveals cedar wood; the second, a turn toward white chocolate. The creaminess persists; the intensity gradually yields to a more prominent taste of rum.
$15
Upon lighting, dominant flavors and aromas of vanilla, subtly complemented by hints of cognac. The creamy texture is enriched with nuanced notes of dry nuts — another delightful smoking experience.
Each blend is meticulously crafted in partnership with master blenders in the Dominican Republic — distinctive flavor profiles, smooth and creamy texture, exceptional draw, and a consistently even burn.
