URSA Extracts

At a glance

URSA Extracts is a Humboldt County, California concentrate brand focused on live resin, Liquid Diamond Sauce, cartridges and small-batch fresh-frozen processing. Its current site describes a farm-to-extractor model using whole flower from artisan growers. The company does not publish a conventional corporate history or leadership page, so founder details remain limited.

Origins and team

URSA was active by 2019, when its live resin placed at a High Times Bay Area Cannabis Cup, and by 2020 it was publicly discussing development of its Liquid Diamond Sauce cartridge. An early team account refers to two extractors developing the format, but reviewed first-party pages do not name founders or disclose ownership. This profile therefore documents the product history without assigning unsupported founder identities.

What it makes

The official catalog lists 510-thread live-resin cartridges and NOVA hardware, live resin, badder and diamond-forward concentrates. Archived company material also names THCa diamonds, isolate powder and Diamond Flake. Current availability is strain- and retailer-dependent; an archived product should not be assumed to remain in production.

Extraction model

URSA says it starts with fresh whole flower, freezes it immediately, extracts cannabinoids and terpenes in small batches, then recombines diamonds and terpenes from the same strain. The company markets this as single-strain, cannabis-only oil without distillate or added non-cannabis flavoring. Those are formulation claims; a batch certificate and ingredient label remain the evidence for any specific unit.

Farm and cultivar relationships

The brand emphasizes Humboldt-grown input and collaborations with artisan farms. Its vault pages archive cultivars, terpene panels, cannabinoid totals, batch IDs and downloadable certificates, offering more provenance than generic flavor naming. Example lab percentages belong only to the cited batch and cannot be generalized across a strain or product line.

Hardware and testing

URSA promoted a fully ceramic cartridge co-engineered to reduce metal contact and preserve flavor. Its site and downloadable laboratory reports support product-level review, but ceramic construction does not by itself prove a cartridge free of every contaminant or hardware risk. Buyers should verify the manufacturer license, lab, batch number and California universal symbol.

Awards and recognition

The 2021 Emerald Cup results identify URSA's Tar Hill Pink Lemonade Liquid Diamond Sauce cartridge in the competition record. URSA also won LeafLink's 2020 fastest-growing cartridge category, an award based on activity on LeafLink's wholesale marketplace. Company and media sources additionally cite a 2019 High Times silver; each honor is dated rather than framed as permanent category leadership.

Where to buy and verify

URSA is a California regulated-cannabis brand, and its live locator should be used for current retailers. Cannabis cannot be shipped interstate. Look-alike packaging and informal sellers should be rejected; purchase only from a licensed California retailer and match the package to the COA where URSA provides one.

Research basis and limits

This profile uses URSA's live home, process, product, vault and award pages, a downloadable Encore Labs report and the Emerald Cup result document. Products, process and dated recognition are documented. No reliable public founder roster, ownership table, revenue, complete license list or fixed store count was found, so none is invented.
