We are looking for a bottle design (with logo) for a new premium vodka company based in Uganda. We are the first company to produce a premium vodka in Uganda made exclusively with local ingredients. We want the label design to set us apart from the more traditional (read boring) designs of local packaging and bring raise the bar for Ugandan packaging design.
We will initially sell to local markets and hope to go global in two years. The vodka is called "SILVERBACK" after the famous adult mountain gorillas which live in the mountains of western Uganda.
The bottle design has to be simple and appealing to both an Africana and an International consumer (tourists). Simple, clean and to the point. The main color should be green and can or cannot include a rendering of a gorilla. Silver must also be included in the design (could be printed on metallic paper). It also can include the mountain landscapes of western Uganda. But please we are also open to more creative ideas which stray from these typical images of Uganda. I will attach some images of the silverback, the mountains of Uganda and other labels of local alcoholic beverages. Must be printed on paper. Can be glossy, matte or metallic. Do not submit ideas for labels printing on transparent film.
The size of the label should be 75mm wide by 120mm high. Also attached is an image of the bottle to be used.

Ultra-Premium Vodka
Produced in Uganda
Triple Distilled from Sugar Cane
42.5%ABV

Project Deadline Extended
Reason: Since we cannot meet until Wednesday to consider the designs, may as well allow the crowd a couple more days of creativity.
