OLCC Recalls Four E-Cigarette Products Containing Illegal Additive
Oregon's OLCC recalls e-cigarette products sold to retailers due to illegal additive CBN, found in Firefly Extracts-branded boxes.

The state of Oregon's Alcohol and Marijuana Commission (OLCC) is recalling four electronic cigarette products that were previously sold to retailers.


Officials stated that these products do not meet the national standards on additives. The OLCC has reported that the records of license holders indicate that these products contain CBN, which is illegal according to Oregon state law as it is an artificially derived cannabinoid.

The following products have been recalled:


Product Name: Firefly - T1 E-Cigarette Box | Manufacturing Date: February 16th, 2022 (Label ID 5658) | Sales Begin on March 16th, 2022.


Product Name: Firefly - Special Sauce Electronic Cigarette Kit | Manufacturing Date: December 22, 2021 (Label ID 5658) | Available for sale starting March 11, 2022.


Product Name: Firefly - Hawaii Haze E-Cigarette Kit | Manufactured on December 22, 2021 (label ID 5658) | Available for sale starting on February 11, 2022.


Product Name: Firefly - Cherry Wife Electronic Cigarette Case | Manufacture Date: August 31st, 2021 (Label ID 5658) | Available for Sale Starting September 11th, 2021.


The OLCC has stated that individuals in possession of these products are being strongly encouraged to dispose of them. Consumers who have health concerns related to the recalled products should contact either the Oregon Poison Center or their healthcare provider.
