Ember Valley is a California cannabis cultivator and brand based in Shasta County, led by chief executive Vinayak Shastry. It describes itself as a collective of artisan growers and holds the fourth legal cannabis license issued in California. Its reputation rests on indoor flower, with pre-rolls, vapes and concentrates alongside it.
Flower and formats
Flower is the core of the line, sold whole and as pre-rolls, with Darts by Ember Valley as the brand's compact pre-roll format. Strains carried under the name include Purple Lightsaber, Melon Fizz, Tiger King, LA Runtz, Purple Churro and Pineapple Express. The company frames its work around genetics hunting and selection, and says it only puts its name on flower that meets its own standard.
Concentrates and vapes
Beyond flower, the catalog runs to live resin, rosin and cold cure concentrates plus vape cartridges, all built from the same indoor material.
