Viejo is a barrel aged cider made by Joe Getz of Kurant Cider. This cider is a single varietal cider made with Winchester apples.
Described on Kurants website as:
"a blend of wild fermented ciders created by using some of the
best apples we could source in Pennsylvania. The ciders used
to blend Viejo were aged for 6-18 months in oak before being used
in the finished product. Viejo is a still cider meaning
non-carbonated. It's meant to be served with a long pour from
great heights to aerate and add effervescence."

In this chat taste and talk Viejo and follow up with Joe on the opening of the Fishtown taproom, which much like Viejo took over a year to build out.
A Porron is used by Kurant Cider for in high pours of cider/sidra
A 19th century carriage house was renovated into the new Taproom, which has an upstairs (The Attic) and a main floor serving area. The giant garage door rolls up and the entire taproom opens to the outdoors.
