Ron Viejo de Caldas is the signature rum of the Industria Licorera de Caldas, the state liquor producer of the department of Caldas in Colombia's coffee region. It is distilled in the Manizales area and aged in oak at altitude. Founding year is cited as 1925, but this is only loosely confirmed. The producer is a state enterprise, so profits return to the departmental budget. The pin is placed at Manizales, not at the exact plant.
