We need a bold logo design for a new company based in Portland, OR called "Cocktailier". We manufacture a prestige brand of barware (mixing glasses, bar spoons, muddlers, etc.) for the food and beverage industry as well as for home use. The logo should represent our values which include great design, impecable quality, and excellent service. We would like the design to have a bolder, modern typography/font, but at the same time remain timeless and iconic.
Updates
Project Deadline Extended
Reason: Thank you for all of your submissions. I am extending the deadline because I was away for a holiday and did not give feedback to many designers while I was away. I have also not seen a winning submission, although some of you have submitted some good designs.

Requirements
Must have
- The best logo will be one that can be stamped into metal and laser etched into wood.
- The word "Cocktailier" should be in all capital letters
- The logo must have some sort of stylized "C" and/or some other design above and/or next to the word "Cocktailier." We want our customers to associate and recognize our brand by this symbol without seeing the entire word "Cocktailier."
Should not have
- The logo should NOT have a standard cocktail (martini) glass in the logo or shaker tins.
- We do not want a lot of small elements in the design as this may be hard to be seen when it is stamped into metal.
- It should not be too "busy" or have many colors.
- It should not be cartoon like.
- Please do not separate the word by capitalizing the "t" in Cocktailer.
