URSA Extracts is a Humboldt County, California concentrate brand built on single-strain, cannabis-only oil. It freezes fresh whole flower from artisan farms, pulls cannabinoids and terpenes in small batches, and recombines diamonds and terpenes from the same plant rather than blending strains or cutting the oil with distillate.
Bear House of Brands
URSA is one of the labels under Bear House of Brands, the Arcata company that also runs WOX Extracts. Both operate under the same California manufacturing license, C11-0001975-LIC, held by Halios Inc at 5550 West End Road in Arcata.
Process
Fresh whole flower goes into the freezer immediately, holding volatile compounds in place before extraction. Master extractors work in small batches, and the resulting oil is single-source, never blended and never diluted with additives. Each strain stays with itself from the farm through to the cartridge.
Products
The catalog covers live resin and badder concentrates plus two 510-thread cartridge lines, Liquid Diamond Sauce and NOVA. Packaging is color-coded by strain so the line reads at a glance on a retail shelf.
URSA co-engineered a fully ceramic 510-thread cartridge, ceramic through the core, the heating element and the mouthpiece, to limit contact between metal and the oil.
URSA emphasizes keeping extract from one named strain together instead of blending unrelated strains. That process statement still needs a batch label. The farm, cultivar, extraction run, package date and cannabinoid panel can change from one release to the next, and a result from Humboldt Jack should not be applied to another cultivar or production lot.
Production
The brand draws fresh-frozen input from Humboldt County farms and publishes a vault page for its releases, archiving the cultivar, terpene panel, cannabinoid totals, batch ID and a downloadable certificate of analysis for each one.
The vault connects product pages with batch identifiers, terpene and cannabinoid totals and downloadable certificates of analysis. Shoppers should match the batch number on the physical package before using a document. A certificate is strong evidence for the tested sample, but it does not establish current inventory, freshness or storage conditions at every retailer.
Recognition
At the 2021 Emerald Cup, the URSA Liquid Diamond Sauce cartridge in Tar Hill Pink Lemonade placed second in Cartridges Live Resin and the NOVA Blueberry Muffin cartridge placed third, with Lemon Super Glue Liquid Diamond Sauce a seventh-place finalist. Runtz Live Resin placed ninth in Hydrocarbon Liquid. URSA also took the fastest-growing cartridges spot on LeafLink's 2020 LeafLink List, ranked on wholesale orders placed through the marketplace between January and September 2020.
Live resin and live badder both begin with fresh-frozen cannabis, but they are sold in different finished textures and packages. The cartridge line adds ceramic hardware and is intended for a compatible battery, while a concentrate jar requires appropriate concentrate equipment. A shared cultivar does not make those formats interchangeable or give them identical cannabinoid values.
Emerald Cup placements and the 2020 LeafLink List document named products and periods in the company's history. Present-day comparisons should focus on the exact cultivar, extract texture, hardware, package date and laboratory result for the item being considered.
Where it operates
URSA is manufactured within California's licensed supply chain and sold through licensed retailers. Bear House of Brands explains the shared company portfolio, while the finished package identifies the licensee and exact product. Regulated concentrates and cartridges are not shipped as ordinary interstate merchandise, and retailer menus control local availability and price.
