Our Story

If you had told us that we’d eventually start a pickle company, we would have laughed at you. But as life often goes, one thing led to another, and our pickling hobby spiraled out of control, evolving from a part-time obsession into a full-time business in 2012. Step by step, we went from  a handful of farmers markets to thousands of retail stores.

Yet, a decade later we didn't have a pickle company anymore. We had a Bloody Mary company...with a pickle problem!

After The Real Dill's inception, our small product lineup grew, leading us to the happy accident that is now our famed Original Bloody Mary Mix. Initially, our pickling process resulted in a delicious and refreshing cucumber-infused water, so instead of dumping it down the drain, we developed a Bloody Mary mix recipe, highlighting the cucumber-infused water as the star ingredient.

What we didn't know then is that people would eventually recognize us for our Bloody Mary Mix more than our pickles, unexpectedly leading to The Real Dill's evolution from a pickle company to a cocktail mix company.

However, one thing that has never changed is that no matter what we are making, we have alwasy been relentlessly committed to making the absolute best products of their kind and to do it in the best way possible. We continually challenge ourselves to build our brand in a way that makes a positive impact on the environment and our local community, and we remain dedicated to working with partners that share our values for quality products that are made with integrity.

Thanks for joining us on this journey. We're so grateful to everyone who has supported us along the way!
