Club is a German brand of cigarettes, currently owned and manufactured by Japan Tobacco.

History

After the creation of the German Democratic Republic, the brand got re-introduced in 1961. The market mainly surrounds the acceding territory from 1990. The tobacco from Western countries was brought to the German Democratic Republic and "the Club" was expensively priced, with a pack price of 4 Deutsche Mark above most other filter cigarettes, which were traded in the range of 2.50 to 3.20 Deutsche Mark per pack.

In 2013, the brand got redesigned to feature a more modern look.
