Yonder Hill has launched its Pinnacle Reserve blend w**e Ankole some years ago. But the true intention was that all the horns shapes, with their Ugandan names, the branding is the Ankole bloodlines Benella owns today. It has come a long way journey and was not an overnight thought or impulsive transaction.
Inspiration for these majestic animals started in March 2012. Publishing a book Cattle of the Ages with President Cyril Ramaphosa. Returning to Uganda in 2019 fetching and loading my own Ankole after traveling Uganda in 2012 for longer than a month visiting more than 20 Ankole breeders and learning so much about this breed and the Nkore culture, it’s deeper than you think. I then went back alone in 2019 and loaded the best combinations each one autistically selected unlinked to each other, however combinations that will superiorly support each other to the utmost maximum level.
Today Benella exclusively owns these bloodlines and genetics without any other breeder involved.
With pairing this past 14 years journey with our best w**e - you can just imagine what goes on in my brain.
