Sour in San José: 18 units tested over 3 weeks, 100 ml bottle formats, priced per 10 ml for Costa Rica.
How we tested Sour 100 ml bottle here
Most people searching IQOS in Costa Rica are not after a spec sheet. They want to know what it costs, how long it lasts and which shop will still service it in three months.
Sour 100 ml bottle reviews tend to be written after one tank. We run 18 units and 3 days per unit, because that is where the honest answer changes.
The short version: sour in San José works if the 100 ml bottle, the coil and the strength are chosen as one system. Everything below is what we measured while doing exactly that.
What a sour 100 ml bottle really costs in San José
If you are looking at sour in Costa Rica, the first question is not strength. It is whether the 100 ml bottle you are quoting actually fits the device on your desk.
How we tested sour in a 100 ml bottle
- Order before 14:00 so the parcel leaves the same day and lands inside 4–9 business days.
- Pick the 100 ml bottle that fits the device already on your desk, not the one on the headline page.
- Settle the draw first: mouth-to-lung or direct-to-lung, because it decides the coil and the liquid.
- A dated dispatch promise: before 14:00 same day, tracked, so no order is held to a warehouse cut-off.
- 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.
- Child-resistant cap and tamper band on every sour bottle shipped into Costa Rica.
Where sour goes wrong
- Buying the cheapest 100 ml bottle available and repeating it because the first coil burnt.
- Ordering in bulk without checking whether couriers in Costa Rica accept nicotine freight.
- Ignoring the batch date on a 100 ml bottle and discovering the listed price was for old stock.
