AspenAlpacas Earl Grey is an exceptional grey herdsire and we are excited about adding him to our breeding program. He stands out with his statuesque silhouette, proud presence, and gorgeous phenotype. He comes by this naturally from breeding two multi-champions. Earl Grey has his sire's outstanding coverage, large bone, and macho, wedge shaped full head, and stunning classic dark silver-grey color. Earl Grey is sired by DSG multi-champion, Applewoods Phantom. His multi-champion fawn dam is Silver Rose Elegance (who has Cochiti and Legacy as close genetics). Not only are his dam and sire champions, all of his grandparents are champions as well! His paternal grandsire is Jerimiah’s Qualtrain and five-time champion grey. This makes for an impressive pedigree that boasts of Majestic Peruvian Jerimiah, MFI Peruvian Jericho, HA Shades of Grey, Peruvian Presidio, PPPeruvian Augusto, 4Peruvian Legacy, Augusto, Cochiti, Caligula, and Victor! Unfortunately, the covid pandemic limited Earl Grey’s show career. Earl Grey has a beautiful handling fleece in a uniform dark silver-grey color. The color is uniform across his body. The micron range is uniform between his white and black fibers. His first histogram displayed a 17.2 micron, 4.4 standard deviation, and 2.2% over thirty micron. He also carries a very long staple length. The crimp is consistent across his blanket and has a high frequency. The fleece shows great brightness with an excellent degree of density. MC1R + ASIP Genotype: Ee aa Earl Grey has already displayed his ability to pass these traits onto his offspring. His 2023 daughter, Estates Danish Silver Mermaid, is currently a 4x Champion with numerous Blue Ribbons. His 2022 son, AspenAlpacas The Duke, won 2 Color Championship banners & 3 Blue Ribbons in 2024. His 2024 daughter, Estates Colette's Shadow won 2nd Place at the 2025 AOA National Show, and just brought home a Blue Ribbon from the 2025 Golden West Alpaca Expo! With 29 cria on the ground, 24 are black or grey and the dams vary from grey to white! With this pedigree, show records, fleece traits, and progeny, what is not to like?

Description

PATAGONIA'S SAMBUCA Sambuca is a beautiful show string quality True Black female. She is true black in color with an extremely soft hand and consistent crimp throughout her fleece. Sambuca brought home a 2nd Place ribbon from the 2011 AOBA National Show. Her sire, Vittorio has a stunning head. His fleece has incredible density and a uniform, high-frequency crimp. Vittorio is sire by Nishio, the 2004 All-American Herdsire of the Year and the 2007 Reserve All-American Herdsire of the Year. His dam, Querida is a 3-time black champion. Sambuca's dam is a fine, true black female whose fleece is still soft to the touch at 16+ years of age. Alpacas de la Patagonia say that it is females like Black Velvet, that they brought to this country from Chile, that have helped them achieve dark colored alpaca fleeces that maintain good fineness as they age into their second decade. For her next cria, we paired Sambuca with our AspenAlpacas Earl Grey. She is due in November 2025. Offspring: On 6/8/2015, Sambuca had a beautiful TB female sired by R&RTROJAN 52T. Trojan has impressive genetics in his pedigree with multi champion R&RR Oliver Twist as his sire. His crias have been exemplary with outstanding fineness, gorgeous crimp, beautiful large bones, and the total package! ESTATES BLACK SEASTAR ribboned at the 2016 AOA National Show. On 5/23/16, Sambuca gave birth to a wonderful TB male with beautiful fleece sired by Snowmass Satin Reserve XX, our outstanding TB herdsire with Superior Royal Black Lineage from the Snowmass Black Breeding Program! On 6/15/17, Sambuca presented us with a stunning TB male sired by Estates Satin Cloud, our outstanding true black 5X-Champion out of Snowmass Satin Reserve. Son, ESTATES SATIN CLOUD'S SEBASTIAN is a 4 Champion with numerous blue ribbons! On 7/5/18, Sambuca gave us a lovely TB female also sired by multi-champion Estates Satin Cloud. On 6/26/19, Sambuca gave birth to a pretty dark brown female also sired by Estates Satin Cloud (now standing in Sweden).

On 5/29/22, Sambuca gave birth to a handsome true black male sired by 5x champion, Red Granites Lapu.
