California cannabis pre-roll recalls — every DCC recall for this product type
Recalls of California cannabis pre-rolls — driven by Aspergillus contamination findings on the underlying flower used in the product.
At a glance
What the data shows
Pre-rolls inherit the recall profile of the flower that goes into them. The dominant failure mode is Aspergillus and other microbial contamination, frequently rolling forward from a recalled flower batch to the pre-rolled SKUs made with it. When a single contaminated batch is recalled, multiple pre-roll product names made from that batch can be pulled in one enforcement action.
Pre-rolls also see "mixed" recalls — contamination plus label findings on the same notice — at a higher rate than flower alone. The combination usually surfaces when DCC sampling finds a contamination issue and the recall investigation also flags label inaccuracies on the same batch documentation.
