Frozen refill pack IQOS in San José: the review shortlist
Frozen in San José: 14 units tested over 4 weeks, refill pack formats, priced per 10 ml for Costa Rica.
How we tested Frozen refill pack here
Frozen refill pack reviews tend to be written after one tank. We run 14 units and 4 days per unit, because that is where the honest answer changes.
There is no single best way to buy IQOS in Costa Rica. There is only the batch that arrived, the coil that came with it, and whether the shop tracks the production run.
If you only read one line: the refill pack you buy decides how long frozen tastes right, and the coil inside it decides how long that is.
What a frozen refill pack really costs in San José
Frozen in a refill pack is not the same product you see in a catalogue photo, and the price per 10 ml is where the gap shows. In San José the liquid, the coil and the power setting all have to agree before the flavour actually lands.
How we tested frozen in a refill pack
- Settle the draw first: mouth-to-lung or direct-to-lung, because it decides the coil and the liquid.
- Order before 14:00 so the parcel leaves the same day and lands inside 4–9 business days.
- Choose strength against the ceiling in Costa Rica, which is the local legal limit for retail here.
- Clear PG/VG ratio on the label, which predicts throat hit more accurately than strength.
- Child-resistant cap and tamper band on every frozen bottle shipped into Costa Rica.
- Returns window and who pays return postage when a refill pack arrives sealed but wrong.
- Batch code and production date, so a frozen bottle turned in 4 weeks ago is not sold as new.
Where frozen goes wrong
- Treating the advertised ₡54 entry kit as the real cost when refills run ₡2.61 per 10 ml.
- Ignoring the batch date on a refill pack and discovering the listed price was for old stock.
- Skipping the spare coil, which is the single part that decides how long frozen in San José survives.
The rules that apply here
Wholesale lines to Costa Rica need import documents the retail shop does not; ask for them in writing before a bulk order.
Packaging for frozen in Costa Rica must be child-resistant, and the batch code has to be readable without cutting the shrink wrap.

Frequently asked questions
Why does frozen taste burnt?
Almost always the coil, not the liquid. On the refill pack units we ran, a coil past 4 days turned the frozen blend itself harsh.
What nicotine strength should frozen start at?
Start at whatever Costa Rica allows on the label. If you already smoke, drop one step; if not, half of it for a refill pack.
How long does frozen in a refill pack last?
In San José we measured 4 to 14 days per unit depending on the coil. The bottle outlasts the coil, so the coil is what you replace.
