Pear nicotine salt bottle IQOS in San José: the cheap shortlist
Pear in San José: 18 units tested over 8 weeks, nicotine salt bottle formats, priced per 10 ml for Costa Rica.
Stock, batch codes and the dispatch window
Pear sounds like one product. It is not: a nicotine salt bottle running varies will taste nothing like the same blend on a different device, which is why we test before we recommend.
Pear 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 ₡2.08 per 10 ml.
The short version: pear in San José works if the nicotine salt bottle, the coil and the strength are chosen as one system. Everything below is what we measured while doing exactly that.

How we tested pear in a nicotine salt bottle
- Pick the nicotine salt bottle that fits the device already on your desk, not the one on the headline page.
- Choose strength against the ceiling in Costa Rica, which is the local legal limit for retail here.
- Order before 14:00 so the parcel leaves the same day and lands inside 4–9 business days.
- The listed nicotine ceiling, which is the local legal limit in Costa Rica, not a suggestion.
- Spare parts availability for nicotine salt bottle in Costa Rica, since tanks and pods go first.
- Child-resistant cap and tamper band on every pear bottle shipped into Costa Rica.
- Stock depth: 18 lines held, so the shortlist does not turn into a special order.
Where pear goes wrong
- Chasing a discount on a nicotine salt bottle that then needs an adapter nobody in Costa Rica stocks.
- Assuming varies is uniform across brands, because two suppliers can label the same number differently.
- Ordering in bulk without checking whether couriers in Costa Rica accept nicotine freight.
