A Police statement said: "Liquid ‘spice’ with an estimated street value of more than £1 million has been seized during an operation targeting the use of the drug in Bradford, led by West Yorkshire Police’s county lines taskforce.
"Working alongside the Bradford District’s neighbourhood policing and serious and organised crime teams, the operation focused on a drugs line linked to the supply of the synthetic cannabinoid, following a number of overdoses involving vulnerable users in and around the city centre.
"During the operation on Tuesday, officers recovered 35 litres of liquid from the basement of an address in Dean Street, Haworth. The substance was tested and confirmed to be spice, which is a controlled Class B drug.
"A search of an address in Woodlands Street, Bradford, resulted in the seizure of around £10,000 in cash. Mobile phones were also seized from both addresses.
"Two men have been charged with offences and are due to appear at Bradford Magistrates' Court today.
"Haaris Hussain, 35, of Dean Street, Haworth, and Awais Mustapha, 28, of Woodlands Street, Bradford, have each been charged with being concerned in the supply of a Class B drug and requiring a person to perform forced or compulsory labour under the Modern Slavery Act 2015.
