As an unusual member of the raccoon and the last and only species under the genus Potos, the Kinkajous live in the tropics of central and southern America. At a height of around 50cm, Kinkajous have some astonishingly long tongues (as long as 13cm) for fruit plucking or nectar extracting. Domesticated Kinkajous also consumes real honey as a part of their diet, and thus became the inspiration of this coffee’s name – the Kinka Bear®.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe coffee industry in Costa Rica has gone through something that all coffee lover should know – the micromill revolution.
