OCM recalls 'low‑dose' Beezwax vapes and pre‑rolls for high THC

The Minnesota Office of Cannabis Management has ordered a recall of all Beezwax brand disposable 2.5‑gram vapes and 1‑gram hemp pre‑rolls after state testing found they contained 'high amounts of THC' far above what their 'low dose' labels claimed. On March 2, Kooka LLC, the parent company, initiated the recall, which covers all flavors of the products that were marketed as compliant with the 2018 Farm Bill using the claim 'contains <0.3% THC.' OCM says lab results show the vapes and pre‑rolls do not meet legal limits and conceal their true potency, and has directed Kooka to immediately stop sales and destroy the affected batch or face penalties of up to $10,000 per violation. The products have been distributed to both licensed cannabis retailers and hemp/tobacco/CBD shops across Minnesota, meaning Twin Cities buyers who thought they were getting mild hemp products may actually be holding much stronger THC items with no honest labeling. The case underscores how the Farm Bill THCa loophole and a still‑wobbly state enforcement regime are leaving consumers to trust labels that don’t always match what’s in the cartridge or joint.
