Dirty Dill Vodka: Pickle Brine Meets the Bottle

Dirty Dill went from making pickle shots in a pot to producing thirty gallons at a time, Westword reported in March 2022. By October 2025, the pickle-infused vodka maker was in 5,000 liquor stores across 13 states, up from about 1,800 stores a year earlier, BusinessDen reported.

The people behind Dirty Dill

Daniel Graves and Warren Wood started the company in 2022, according to BusinessDen. Westword's launch coverage named Colton Mortag alongside the pair and described all three as Colorado natives.

Wood brought beverage-industry experience, while Graves had previously run a construction company, according to BusinessDen. During the business's first couple of years, the pair battled equipment and shelf-life problems, Graves told the publication.

Brewing the brine

Westword's 2022 feature described the shot at 30 percent alcohol by volume, with no artificial ingredients. Its brine included vinegar, salt, peppercorn, and mustard seeds. After two hours of brewing, the brine sat for two weeks before vodka was added and the product filtered, the report explained.

A version made with caribe peppers accompanied the original pickle variety in Westword’s account. By the October 2025 BusinessDen profile, the listed flavors were dill, spicy dill, and bloody mary. That report described 50-milliliter nips and 750-milliliter bottles, with individual shots selling for $1.49 in stores and the larger bottles at about $20.

A larger business and a packing plan

Revenue was $300,000 in 2024, with $1 million projected for 2025, Graves said in BusinessDen's October profile. The brand's best-selling states at that point were Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, and Michigan, according to the report.

The company had signed on with Republic National Distributing Co. that May, the article reported. Graves also planned to leave the Adams County warehouse and production facility when its lease ended and shift to contract packing.
