This male has an amazing fleece, excellent conformation and beautiful head. He is Snow Diamond Absinthe, son of 7x champion CCNF Elixir who also is 2x judges' choice winner. Absinthe already has won two color championships and a judges' choice award in his first show season. Snowmass Matrix Majesty and CCNF Archangel run in Absinthe's dam's pedigree.
Judges in two fleece shows have recognized Absinthe's "fine fleece with great uniformity" and "his high degree of fineness and uniformity." In a walking fleece competition, he had three perfect scores and one score that was just a point away from perfection. In halter he was named Judge's Choice at the 2019 Illinois Alpaca Show.
Absinthe produces all the colors, including appaloosa and black!
Absinthe's first cria crop included the 2023 AOA Supreme Champion Dark Huacaya Female H2R Queen's Jubilee. Jubilee was also Judge's Choice at the 2023 Futurity and sold to Oldenburg Alpacas and Madrick Alpacas in Germany. Other Judge's Choice offspring include H2R Truffle Shuffle and H2R A La Mode. His son, H2R Atlas, now resides as a breeding male in Poland. His offspring have been bannered at the AOA National Show in both halter and walking fleece.
Absinthe's two histograms were:
2018 AFD 13.8 SD 3.0 CV 21.7 >30 0.3
2019 AFD 13.8 SD 2.9 CV 20.9 >30 0.3
And check out those EPDs! Not too shabby.
They don't come much better than this.

Description
“For Heaven’s Sake!” Named after the Greek God, H2R Atlas is a masculine powerhouse, built from a roadmap of carefully chosen strong foundation genetics. In simple terms, he is built like a shit brickhouse. Not only is he impressive to look at, his fleece does not disappoint. He carries brightness and uniformity, that lends itself to a high frequency crimp structure creating solidity of the staples across his entire frame. His sire, Snow Diamond Absinthe, has not disappointed. Absinthe’s production includes the 2023 National Supreme Champion Dark Huacaya Female, H2R Queen’s Jubilee (Lot# 12). Both Atlas and Jubilee share the same maternal grandsire, Snowmass Velvet Touché, who has award-winning production across the globe. Atlas has the attributes to make him a future industry pacesetter. These qualities were noted by judges after taking a 1st place in his halter class at the 2023 AOA National Show, his very first time off the ranch.
