ABOUT FILTHY

Filthy Food® is the only line of garnishes made specifically for alcohol. With bars moving towards fresher, higher quality ingredients, the cocktail renaissance exposed categories that hadn’t evolved. Traditional garnishes like olives and cherries were very poor quality, oily and high in salt but most importantly didn’t add anything to the guest experience. Obsessed with the details, brothers and Filthy Food® co-founders, Daniel and Marc Singer saw an opportunity to create the industry standard and explored hundreds of varieties of cultivatable olives in search of the perfect garnishes for cocktails. Making garnishes with care for people that care, the brothers have developed a full line that include The Filthy Pickle – a fleshy queen olive stuffed with a mini gherkin, the Filthy Black Cherry, which is the only garnish to ever be nominated for an award at Tales of the Cocktail® and the Filthy Blue Cheese stuffed olive, which is filled with real sharp Wisconsin Blue Cheese. Filthy is used by some of the best bars in the world and the “Best Martini & Bloody Mary Olives in the Business’ according to GQ. For more information please visit www.filthyfood.com
