Ron Medellin is made by the Fabrica de Licores de Antioquia, the state liquor company of the Department of Antioquia, which dates itself to 1919. Its best known spirit is aguardiente, but its aged rums are widely sold in Colombia and exported. Wash is molasses fermented and distilled in column stills; the rum is aged in oak. Profits go to the departmental government for health and education spending. The exact plant location is an approximation placed in the Medellin area.
