Fazenda Das Almas is owned and managed by the Muniz family in Cabo Verde. They started around 1965 but the coffee culture exists since 1942.
Adriano’s father started the production at his time and taught everything to him. Once he took over the business, he saw the need to improve quality and be more updated,
the market was changing and the farm would follow the trends by improving the structures, the processes and, as a result, the coffee quality.
They are considere pioneers in the specialty coffee market around Cabo Verde city.The farm has always had a very well-maintained environmental sector and they’ve got the UTZ and
Rainforest Alliance certifications in 2004 and 2009, respectively. They’re also in process of getting their Organic certification for a new area they’ve developed in the farm.

Das Almas is recognized in the region as a company that cares, with emphasis, for nature and social issues. 37% of the farm’s land is forest area, with 7,000 meters of Permanent Preservation Area (APP) and ecological corridors.
There are also 21 springs, all of them protected. The farm is situated at an altitude of 1100 meters.
In 2017 the family set up a generator driven by an engine that works at the expense of biogas. Since then, they have been selfsufficient in electricity.

Adriano dedicates a specific plot to new and diverse coffee varieties. They planted 20 trees of each and in 2019 it was the first time the area was harvested. After the post harvest and the sensory analysis,
the family will know for sure which of these varieties are developing better in the farm’s micro climate, making it easy to choose the future renovations. It also allows them to try new post harvest procedures
in small quantities to evaluate the results and replicate, afterwards, in bigger lots.

In 2019, Das Almas started a simple fermentation process. In 2020 they took courses about the many types of fermentations. Currently, they’ve been producing honey coffees, such as red honey,
yellow honey, black honey, fermentation with carbonic maceration, semi-carbonic maceration, fully washed, fermentations in open boxes and suspended beds.
