Guava pod kit IQOS in San José: the guide shortlist
Guava in San José: 14 units tested over 6 weeks, pod kit formats, priced per 10 ml for Costa Rica.
Stock, batch codes and the dispatch window
Guava in San José reaches the shelf in pod kit formats, and the starter ones are rarely the ones that stay in stock. Availability, not taste, is what breaks an order.
The honest read on guava: 14 units through the same routine over 6 weeks, and the difference between a good batch and a bad one came down to batch age, not the sticker price.
Below is the run we did for this search: 14 units, pod kit, same room temperature, same juice rotation. Where results varied, the variation is printed rather than averaged away.

How we tested guava in a pod kit
- Settle the draw first: mouth-to-lung or direct-to-lung, because it decides the coil and the liquid.
- Choose strength against the ceiling in Costa Rica, which is the local legal limit for retail here.
- Pick the pod kit that fits the device already on your desk, not the one on the headline page.
- The listed nicotine ceiling, which is the local legal limit in Costa Rica, not a suggestion.
- The landed price per 10 ml after 4–9 business days, which is the only number worth comparing.
- Stock depth: 14 lines held, so the shortlist does not turn into a special order.
- Clear PG/VG ratio on the label, which predicts throat hit more accurately than strength.
Where guava goes wrong
- Mixing guava with a coil rated for a different wattage, which dulls the flavour and drains liquid faster.
- Ignoring the batch date on a pod kit and discovering the listed price was for old stock.
- Assuming varies is uniform across brands, because two suppliers can label the same number differently.

Not automatically. On guava the budget price and the premium price can sit within ₡2.29 per 10 ml once 4–9 business days is counted.

Start at whatever Costa Rica allows on the label. If you already smoke, drop one step; if not, half of it for a pod kit.
