Colombia got its name from Christopher Columbus, although it was actually discovered by Alonco de Ojeda and Amerigo Vespucci. The country has many natural resources such as oil, natural gas, gold, platinum, silver, emeralds and wood. Due to the geographical and climatic conditions in Colombia, agriculture also thrives. Coffee, sugarcane, tropical fruits, cotton, tobacco, cloves and orchids (3,500 species), as well as rice and grain are sold worldwide. Unfortunately, the beautiful Latin American country is still dominated by corruption and drug trafficking.

Well-known rums of Colombia are: Dictador, Hemingway, Ron Medellin
