About

Dirty International produces 100% New Zealand-made olive brine, a surprisingly useful ingredient for cooking and cocktails with a delicious umami flavor. Launched in 2020 by three women, the idea stemmed from a struggle to find good dirty martinis. They partner with Telegraph Hill Olives in Hawke's Bay, transforming leftover olive curing brine into a versatile condiment. This Auckland-based side hustle champions local production and natural ingredients.
