Thought I would share and see what you all think.

Everything looks good. The lettering could be bolder IMO. Your name should stand out just as much as the artwork if not more. Good job nonetheless.
I feel like on a bottle a lot of this will get lost. Bigger, bolder! And the star looks so random. What does the red star mean? Why is it there?

Not random, he has a the same star in his profile pic. I am now curious to know the meaning behind the star. Fill us in Crispy.
We are working on finalizing the website before publishing it, as well as finishing up some of the legalities.Grass Snake said:

I would have to agree that it can get lost on a bottle label after seeing a mock up applied to a 5oz woozy bottle. The star does have significance.
Both the star and the Phoenix are not random, kinda a long story I will explain after work today.Grass Snake said:
I'm picturing it like this...
The "ring" (between the 2 lines) is solid black, the letters are white, it only says "Crispee's Pepper Co." The other stuff is products you sell, that doesn't really go in a logo and creates clutter. I would also have the wings spread beyond the circle. This makes the bird discernible, the text pop, and keeps it clean.
The red star at the top of a circle to me looks like Heineken.
Of course these are just comments, if you use it as is, still looks good and hopefully the sauce is.

Let me show you what I man real quick and how it is legible small. Something like...
Obviously I am no designer just trying to show how the bird and text can pop better.
The bird is pretty killer btw!

Ill work on it a little further with my graphics person at the office. Its just a short week since I am closing the office Wednesday through Sunday for the summer holidays and trying to fit a whole week into 2 days is never fun.
Ill get into to the history and symbology soon, just been a long day.

My personal preference is Sauces - Rubs - Spices on the website, and business card, in text below logo, not in it... and if on the bottle, maybe on the back or bottom of logo. It's a cluttered look, like Kraft cheese, they are not telling you they also sell mayonnaise on the cheese packet in the logo. Keep it clean and crisp(ee). Just my 2¢.
