Apple 100 ml bottle IQOS in San José: the deals shortlist
Apple in San José: 9 units tested over 4 weeks, 100 ml bottle formats, priced per 10 ml for Costa Rica.
Coil life, liquid cost and the apple habit
Apple prices move with import duty more than with brand. In San José that means the entry option and the premium option can close to within ₡2.63 per 10 ml.
Apple sounds like one product. It is not: a 100 ml bottle running varies will taste nothing like the same blend on a different device, which is why we test before we recommend.
If you only read one line: the 100 ml bottle you buy decides how long apple tastes right, and the coil inside it decides how long that is.
What a apple 100 ml bottle really costs in San José
Ordering into San José usually means waiting 4–9 business days. Plan the reorder around that, not around the flavour you like best.
How we tested apple in a 100 ml bottle
- Choose strength against the ceiling in Costa Rica, which is the local legal limit for retail here.
- Pick the 100 ml bottle that fits the device already on your desk, not the one on the headline page.
- Order before 14:00 so the parcel leaves the same day and lands inside 4–9 business days.
- Coil type inside the 100 ml bottle, because mesh and wire age at different rates.
- Spare parts availability for 100 ml bottle in Costa Rica, since tanks and pods go first.
- Child-resistant cap and tamper band on every apple bottle shipped into Costa Rica.
- Returns window and who pays return postage when a 100 ml bottle arrives sealed but wrong.
Where apple goes wrong
- Treating the advertised ₡47 entry kit as the real cost when refills run ₡2.63 per 10 ml.
- Matching strength to the device instead of the draw, which is why apple tastes flat after two days.
- Chasing a discount on a 100 ml bottle that then needs an adapter nobody in Costa Rica stocks.
