Sour starter kit IQOS in Australia: the compare shortlist
Sour in Australia: 10 units tested over 2 weeks, starter kit formats, priced per 10 ml for Australia.
Where buyers go wrong with sour in Australia
There is no single best way to buy IQOS in Australia. There is only the batch that arrived, the coil that came with it, and whether the shop tracks the production run.
If you are looking at sour in Australia, the first question is not strength. It is whether the starter kit you are quoting actually fits the device on your desk.
Below is the run we did for this search: 10 units, starter kit, same room temperature, same juice rotation. Where results varied, the variation is printed rather than averaged away.
What a sour starter kit really costs in Australia
If you are looking at sour in Australia, the first question is not strength. It is whether the starter kit you are quoting actually fits the device on your desk.
How we tested sour in a starter 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 Australia, which is 20 mg/mL for retail here.
- Pick the starter kit that fits the device already on your desk, not the one on the headline page.
- Coil type inside the starter kit, because mesh and wire age at different rates.
- Returns window and who pays return postage when a starter kit arrives sealed but wrong.
- A dated dispatch promise: before 14:00 same day, tracked, so no order is held to a warehouse cut-off.
- Stock depth: 10 lines held, so the shortlist does not turn into a special order.
Where sour goes wrong
- Mixing sour with a coil rated for a different wattage, which dulls the flavour and drains liquid faster.
- Matching strength to the device instead of the draw, which is why sour tastes flat after two days.
- Ignoring the batch date on a starter kit and discovering the listed price was for old stock.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a starter kit cost per 10 ml?
On the last run in Australia: about A$2.69 per 10 ml liquid plus A$65 for the entry kit, before any bulk discount.
Why does sour taste burnt?
Almost always the coil, not the liquid. On the starter kit units we ran, a coil past 5 days turned the sour blend itself harsh.
How long does sour in a starter kit last?
In Australia we measured 2 to 10 days per unit depending on the coil. The bottle outlasts the coil, so the coil is what you replace.
