Alfred Inc. has become a staple in Los Angeles with Instagram-worthy drinks and a coffee/tea shop experience like no other. Founder Josh Zad jumped on the Foodbeast Katchup podcast, shared how it all came to be, and how he transitioned Alfred's success into a successful international brand, opening Alfred Tea in the heart of Japan. 

Zad also shared how the success of his shops have opened the door to a new Mexican style called "Calidad," that is already being sold in over 600 U.S. locations.

For the first time since the incident, Zad also opened up about the infamous Kawhi Leonard ban and explained the whole situation, trying to finally put the whole thing to rest.
