ABOUT THE SOCIETY
​The Society exists to bring together individuals who align with Republican and center-right principles—senior political professionals, Hill staffers, business leaders, government affairs experts, think tank leaders, and administration officials. It’s a chance to enjoy good company with like-minded people, without outsiders or sales pitches.
​
It all started in April 2025, when I met a group of friends for drinks and cigars. By the end of the night, it was clear: there’s real demand for a place where center-right professionals can gather in a private, relaxed, and off-the-record setting.
So, the D.C. Center-Right Cigar Society was born. Membership is by invitation only and limited to individuals who align with the group’s values and culture. This is not a group for those who support Democratic candidates, causes, or ideologies.
​
If you don’t align with that vision, we respectfully ask that you refrain from applying.
