Summary
Alien Labs is a California cannabis brand whose flower products were the subject of more than one mandatory recall by the Department of Cannabis Control (DCC) in 2025. The DCC recall portal lists a mandatory recall of Alien Labs flower and pre-rolls published on April 15, 2025, for microbial contamination with Aspergillus, and a mandatory recall of Alien Labs flower dated July 17, 2025, citing Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus niger. Both notices name 2JC LLC (license C11-0001367-LIC) as the licensee. The Marijuana Herald reported that the July recall concerned half-ounce packages of 'Zangria' flower packaged on or after April 30, 2025 and sold through retailers in San Diego, San Francisco and Contra Costa counties, and that another Alien Labs recall had taken place in June 2025. The DCC advises anyone holding a recalled product to check the UID and batch number, dispose of or return matching items, and seek medical attention for any adverse reaction.

Status notes
The July 17, 2025 mandatory recall appears in the DCC portal listing (mandatory recalls section) as 'Alien Labs Flower'. The June 2025 recall mentioned by The Marijuana Herald was not checked on the DCC portal. The DCC recall pages did not display batch or retailer details when fetched; 2JC LLC may be a packager/licensee for the brand rather than the brand owner — editor should word accordingly.
