WPI Flavours & Nutritional Info

We now have 30 flavours available to choose from.

We have three new releases (descriptions have been written by Chiara, I'm not great at adding such flair!):

  • Signature Milk Tea: Inspired by the iconic taste of classic milk tea, this flavour combines a velvety, creamy base with subtle tea notes from Amino Z's signature blend of premium Assam and black teas.
  • Earl Grey Milk Tea: Developed with a blend of meticulously selected bergamot and a signature combination of rich black teas, this flavour brings creamy, milky notes for a smooth, satisfyingly elegant taste that’s true to the classic Earl Grey.
  • Caramelised Dutch Cookie: Inspired by classic Speculaas cookies, this flavour combines warm, spiced caramel with a creamy, sweet base. It delivers a rich, indulgent taste of caramelised cookies with subtle hints of cinnamon, gingerbread and other spices.

All flavours are naturally sweetened. We have transitioned over to thaumatin for the fact that it is an all natural plant based sweetener, a superior flavour profile, a neutral insulin impact (as it is a protein) and being very gentle on the gut. A bit of trivia, thaumatin is about 10x the cost of artificial counterparts (eg. sucralose) and more than 5x the cost of stevia based on weight! Our focus remains on product quality.

Five of the thirty flavours will attract a higher price point due to additional cost to manufacture and also higher ingredient costs associated with these flavours. They include the three cookie flavours (+$2.48 per 1kg bag for Caramelised Dutch Cookie, Cookies & Cream, Mint Cookie Crunch) and the two new tea flavours (+$4.14 per 1kg bag for Signature Milk Tea, Earl Grey Milk Tea). All other flavours are at the standard price.

In terms of nutritional information, it will vary between flavours. Here's a breakdown (thanks to @Chaffix and @Jamiess in prior deals):

For the sweetness above, this is just a general indication of how sweet this flavour is relative to other flavours. 1 star is less sweet, 3 stars is more sweet. Unflavoured has no sweetener added so is 0 stars.

To help guide, here are the category descriptions from the table above:

Category Description
STRAIGHT Unflavoured and optimised for macronutrients (90% protein). Due to omitting flavours and any sweetener, this is just straight WPI from the manufacturer (less than 1% sunflower lecithin added at the point of manufacture). Use in cookies, smoothies etc. Or if you just want the best macros and don't care for taste!
CORE These flavours have between 75-87% protein. They will also be low in fat (0.3-0.8g/serve) and also low in carbs (1-3.7g/serve). As a general guide, suitable if you have strict dietary restrictions and want to keep the carbs/fat down, but want something more exciting than unflavoured.
INDULGE These flavours will have 64-76% protein with a higher serving size. Notably, carbs and/or fat will be higher than most flavours in the core range, generally contributing an additional 20-30 calories per serve. These flavours will also contain extra ingredients that enhance the flavour profile. This extra latitude with macros and ingredients allows us to elevate the flavour to be what we consider amazing, while not being a complete cheat meal. Given the popularity of Aussie Choc Malt, we're experimenting with a few others in this category and have recently released our three new cookie flavours and our two new milk tea flavours.

Flavour Descriptions

Thanks for the suggestion to include these @gimmebubbletea in our prior deal! Written by Chiara on our team (I do not have the creative wording ability for some of these descriptions!)

  • Aussie Choc Malt (New and Improved): Transport yourself back to the childhood days of mixing spoonfuls of chocolate malt powder into full-cream milk with our Aussie Chocolate Malt (New and Improved) flavour. This flavour is mildly sweet with a distinct malty taste that pairs perfectly with gentle notes of milk chocolate, resulting in a well-balanced and delightful flavour profile. Contains Gluten.
  • Banana: A moderately sweet and creamy shake, with the prominent taste of ripe bananas.
  • Brazilian Chocolate (Brigadeiro): A velvety taste of chocolate with hints of caramelised condensed milk.
  • Caramelised Dutch Cookie: Inspired by classic Speculaas cookies, this flavour combines warm, spiced caramel with a creamy, sweet base. It delivers a rich, indulgent taste of caramelised cookies with subtle hints of cinnamon, gingerbread and other spices.
  • Choc Cherry Delight: A flavour that captures the beloved taste of a classic Australian chocolate bar, it blends the richness of dark chocolate with the sweet tanginess of cherries and subtle hints of coconut, creating a delicious and satisfying shake that mimics the real deal.
  • Chocolate Caramel: Inspired by a popular Aussie Chocolate caramel lolly, our chocolate caramel flavour harmoniously blends the sweet and sticky profiles of caramel and butterscotch with a subtle milk chocolate base.
  • Chocolate Coconut: A blend of rich dark chocolate with sweet, creamy, and nutty coconut undertones.
  • Chocolate Honeycomb: A combination that showcases the richness of milk chocolate paired with the sweet and distinctive taste of honeycomb. Its velvety texture complements the flavour notes, elevating the overall taste experience.
  • Chocolate: A smooth and velvety chocolate flavour with a delightful sweetness and prominent cocoa notes.
  • Coconut Ice Cream: A creamy, moderately sweet flavour with a hint of nuttiness that closely resembles the flavour profile of sweetened coconut milk.
  • Coffs Harbour Choc Banana: Staying true to its name, the Coffs Harbour Choc Banana is a creamy shake that strikes a delightful balance between smooth milky chocolate and ripe banana flavours.
  • Cookies and Cream Ice Cream: Cookies and Cream Ice Cream flavour blends creamy vanilla with crunchy, chocolatey cookie bits and hints of dark cocoa. The sweet vanilla and rich cookies create a perfect balance of smoothness and crunch, with a thicker, more decadent mouthfeel that makes it especially indulgent and satisfying. Contains Gluten.
  • Creme Caramel: A creamy shake with multiple caramel flavours that blend together harmoniously, and a touch of salt to create a balanced sweetness.
  • Earl Grey Milk Tea: Developed with a blend of meticulously selected bergamot and a signature combination of rich black teas, this flavour brings creamy, milky notes for a smooth, satisfyingly elegant taste that’s true to the classic Earl Grey.
  • Fruity Cereal Milk: A nostalgic blend of zesty, fruity kids cereal and milk flavours. Delicious with water, but when made with milk, it tastes exactly like the sweet milk left at the bottom of your fruity cereal bowl.
  • Iced Chai Latte: A delightful blend of sweet and spicy flavours, reminiscent of the authentic taste of chai with a touch of creamy vanilla. If you're a fan of the classic chai latte, you won’t be disappointed by this flavour.
  • Iced Coffee: A harmonious blend of robust coffee flavours complemented by milky undertones and subtle hints of vanilla.
  • Indulgent White Chocolate: A sweet, buttery flavour, complemented by hints of caramel, vanilla, and milk.
  • Matcha Green Tea Ice Cream: It's a delightful harmony of sweet and earthy matcha flavour combined with a creamy vanilla base.
  • Melon Milk: Inspired by a popular Korean drink, our Melon Milk flavour melds the taste of fresh honeydew melon with milky, vanilla notes. It's a refreshing, vibrant, and perfectly balanced flavour that's considered to be anything but dull.
  • Mint Choc Chip: A refreshing blend of peppermint, perfectly balanced with the creamy richness of milk chocolate. If you're a fan of the classic ice cream flavour combination, you're in for a delightful treat.
  • Mint Cookie Crunch: Mint Cookie Crunch flavour combines the flavours of mint ice cream with crunchy, chocolatey cookie bits for a delightful treat. The crisp mint flavour perfectly balances the rich chocolate, while the added cookie pieces create a satisfying crunch, making every sip both refreshing and enjoyable. Contains Gluten.
  • Neapolitan Ice Cream: A perfect trio of strawberry, chocolate, and vanilla ice cream flavours. This flavour is considered to be sweet and moreish, making it a great choice for those with a sweet-tooth.
  • Pandan & Coconut Gelato: A South East Asian inspired flavour featuring the sweet and refreshing taste of pandan blended with creamy coconut notes. Together, they create a smooth, sweet, and tropical-flavoured shake.
  • Signature Milk Tea: Inspired by the iconic taste of classic milk tea, this flavour combines a velvety, creamy base with subtle tea notes from Amino Z's signature blend of premium Assam and black teas.
  • Smooth Milk Chocolate: A milder, lighter chocolate taste and sweetness compared to our regular chocolate flavour.
  • Strawberry: A lightly sweet and creamy shake with prominent strawberry notes, nicely balanced by hints of vanilla.
  • Taro Milk Ice Cream: A smooth and creamy blend, coupled with the distinct flavour of taro and subtle milk undertones.
  • Vanilla Creamy: This flavour is inspired by vanilla ice cream and is celebrated for its well-rounded, pleasantly sweet taste, as well as the smooth texture it brings when made into a shake.

Product Breakdown

  • 100% Australian Blended and Packed in our Sydney Facility
  • Our manufacturing facility is owned by us and is a NSW Licensed Food Facility with an approved Dairy Processing license
  • We only use WPI in this protein - this is not a blend of other cheaper proteins (for example Whey Protein Concentrate/WPC)
  • Protein used is added hormone free, ultra and micro filtered and cold pressed
  • Naturally sweetened with thaumatin. We do not use artificial sweeteners.
  • Soy free - we use sunflower lecithin instead of soy lecithin (soy is common in whey proteins)
  • Backed by our 110% Guarantee. Try it and if you don't love it, we'll give you 110% back (in store credit) or a full refund (including delivery). As I mentioned in the video, we offer this so you can try the product risk-free. If you've opened it up to try it we're not going to make you send it back either.

Why 3kg this time? (Info on WPI Prices and Supply Constraints)

Previously we have done deals for 4-5kg, but given the current supply and pricing situation, we could just not make it feasible this time around. Given that we absolutely wanted to proceed with a Black Friday OzBargain deal, we felt that the best way we could proceed was to reduce the quantity. I'll provide some background.

Many retailers had a price increase this year due to the increased price of whey protein (particularly WPI). Unfortunately prices have continued to increase and supply is extremely limited globally. Currently WPI is practically not available for supply.

After speaking directly with almost 8 international manufacturers of WPI, it seems very unlikely that supply will improve in the next 3-6 months. For this reason (and as I mentioned in my video), we have had to restrict this deal to 3kg to avoid running out of stock. We also want to ensure that we have adequate supply to run this deal without having to end it far too prematurely.

To be completely transparent with everyone, it is extremely likely that we may not be able to run another whey deal in early 2025. While we do typically do a deal every 3-4 months, given the very challenging supply situation, it is quite possible that this may be the last WPI deal for a while.

Commonly Asked - Amino Z WPI / ON 100% Whey / Musashi 100% Whey (The 3 most popular proteins here on OzBargain)

In almost all of our prior WPI deals, I have been asked how our WPI compares to two other very popular products on OzBargain that we sell (Optimum Nutrition 100% Gold Standard Whey and Musashi 100% Whey).

One thing I want to emphasise is that we have sold all three products and despite us obviously having a vested interest in our own brand, we firmly stand behind the quality of all three products (hence why we used to stock all of them).

In a previous deal (when we used to stock these other brands), I asked our team to put together a comprehensive and objective video detailing many key differences between the three products. So if you're interested, the video can be seen at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6LBeV33fArc

Obviously taste will come down to personal preference so we haven't touched on this, we have instead focussed on key attributes of each product. I hope this presents a fair representation of each.

Side note - the reason why we are no longer stocking Musashi and Optimum Nutrition is because of the overwhelming support of our Amino Z brand. Our warehouse space is limited and being a small business with constrained resources, we have decided to focus solely on our brand.

Z Points FAQ

  • What are Z Points? Z Points are the same as store credit. Your account is credited and you can use this as a discount on any future order with us.
  • Can I use Z Points/Credit from a prior deal? 100% Yes. If you received credit last time, feel free to use it as a discount this time.
  • How do I use my Z Points/Credit? To apply existing store credit (Z Points), firstly make sure that you are logged in. Then, go into checkout and after entering your delivery and shipping choice, select "Load Payment Methods". Once loaded, you will see an option entitled "Spend Your Points". Click this and then enter how many points you wish to apply as a discount to your order. You can apply points acquired from previous deals to this purchase.
  • How long until I receive my Z Points/Credit? You will get your Z Points assigned to your account within 3 weeks of your order shipping. It can then be applied to any future order that you place. This cannot be expedited.
  • Other Z Points/Credit Info: Z Points do NOT expire. Also, you do NOT have to be a Club Z member to retain your store credit.
  • Z Points Limit: There is a limit of one lot of bonus store credit per person across all our promotions for the next three weeks. You can order more than 3kg of WPI, or place two separate orders, but the store credit will be capped so we can stay in business and keep doing deals like these. We do not plan to do any other OzBargain promotions during this time.

Other FAQ

  • Ordering more than 3kg: While the Z Points are capped at one per person, even if you order more than 3kg, you will still receive a lower unit price if you order 4kg or more. To order 4kg or more, please add in multiple of the 1kg size (not the 4kg or 5kg sizes) so you receive the better unit price.
  • Choose Multiple Flavours: We pack these into 1kg pouches. You can choose 3 different flavours if you like.
  • Packaging: We are now using new pouches. Should you have issues, please do not hesitate to reach out to our team.
  • Best Before Dates: Best before dates will be 18-24 months away. We turn this product over very quickly so all current stock has been produced recently.
  • Free Delivery: You will get free delivery on your entire order when you order 3kg of WPI (or $75+).
  • Applying the Coupon Code: Please apply the coupon code in your shopping cart before checking out.
  • 30% Discount: The 30% discount will be off the full price before discount, not on the already discounted price.
  • Club Z: Our Club Z membership program is a paid subscription with the most common membership being $9.99/month with $10 back/month for each monthly renewal. This is different to having an account on our website. We frequently run Club Z bonus offers, such as in this deal where anyone who was already an existing active and paid Club Z member (immediately prior to launching this promo) will receive a total of $45 back in Z Points. Full info here.
  • Referral Codes: Please note that this offer won't stack with our referral code offer, nor any other offers.
  • Our 5 most popular flavours: Chocolate, Vanilla, Aussie Choc Malt, Iced Coffee and now Cookies & Cream.

A word of thanks

Our last deal was a massive success and I did want to again thank everyone for the amazing support that we do continue to receive here on OzBargain. Not only for the orders and upvotes, but also for the great feedback we receive so we can continue to improve (and ultimately provide better value).

As always, I will personally be on the deal page engaging with everyone. Vanessa (our head of customer service) will be handling all direct messages. Please do not hesitate to reach out should you have experienced any issues or simply have a question.

Thanks again everyone!

          Jay

    • is this for people that don't eat meat and eggs?

      • its cheaper than most 'food' protein and convenient

      • Hahahaha. No, its for people that train hard and struggle to get all the protein they need in food without over-eating and getting fat as well.. I eat about 300g of steak, chicken or lamb and 4-5 eggs every day, plus 300ml of non-homo milk, greek yoghurt, nuts, etc. I'm also 6ft2, 80kg and have two of these protein servings every day, 6 days a week. I take in about 50g of whey protein every day and the other 100+ grams come from food leaving me at around 2g per kg of bodyweight which is ideal for hypertrophy. Yes, you can get away with less and still grow but I don't flog myself to take that chance of malnourishment when I can bump it up with this stuff for cheap. It's like $1 a serving at these prices. This is called a protein SUPPLEMENT for a reason; it's not a meal replacement. I don't even drink one of the servings I have daily, I mix it into my greek yoghurt and the other serving goes into milk so I am always consuming real food with it.

      • +4

        I think it's worth stressing the point raised above, this is a supplement and not a meal replacement. So we would never recommend people to stop eating a balanced wholefood diet and replacing it with our shakes.

        We do have a lot of people on vegetarian diets who do consume protein as a supplement, as it can be difficult to obtain adequate protein through food.

        Many of our customers will consume this to conveniently boost their protein intake. We have leaned into creating a wide variety of flavours to make it a bit more novel and enjoyable (and perhaps closer to a cheat meal).

        I note that WPI is a fast absorbing protein, so it's ideal to be taking after a workout to help facilitate recovery.

        Jay

        • ahhhh ok so you need to mix with a high protein diet. got it.

          • +3

            @kungfuman: Sorry for any confusion here, but I guess it ultimately depends upon your personal situation.

            Some may already have a high protein diet but require additional protein (eg. to supplement with for their training).

            Others may struggle to eat sufficient protein through food. This is more common with vegetarians, as many plants will be lower in protein relative to meats. Certainly not all though. Plus, many plant based proteins are "incomplete" proteins meaning that some amino acids may be present in very low amounts. A whey protein is considered a "complete" protein and so therefore can be used to supplement a plant heavy diet.

            Once again, this is all very broad and general in nature. It will ultimately boil down to each individuals specific situation and requirements.

    A quick note to anyone who has recently purchased in the last 7 days prior to the launch of this deal (and only just missed out on this offer). If you wanted to take advantage of this deal, please feel free to send us through a direct message and Vanessa can look after you.

    We get asked this every deal and we will be more than happy to accommodate. The fact that you are supporting our brand outside these deals means the world to us and we do not want you to feel like we've done you a disservice when you could have waited a few more days.

    Thank you as always!

          Bought multiple times, had an issue where the bags were unsealing themselves from the slider and it was sorted promptly and quickly.

          Couldn't be happier with the service and products.

          The hardest part I have is trying to convince my friends to buy off you - they all think the big name brands are better quality when in fact that could be further from the truth.

          • @appxl: I'll share this with the team, they will love this feedback and thank you so much for sharing this! I really appreciate it!

        Thank you so much for your support @Reluctance

        We have had to make a cut off at a week prior to this deal, but feel free to send over a message to us and Vanessa can look into your order specifically. Thank you so much for the support outside of these deals that we run.

      Ordered last week. Got delivered today. Choc malt is where it is at! I am happy to support you guys outside of sales keep the extra $

      • Thanks so much @Taylortheking! The team and I really appreciate the support!

  • Thx OP, could we purchase more than 1 time under 1 account?

    • +3

      Hi @xiaozaocha - you can, but you'll only get 1 lot of Z Points back as store credit. The cap per person is $30-$45 (depending upon what category you fall into). We're working with very limited stock, so we cannot extend the promotional credit beyond this amount for this promo.

      Thanks for your interest!

      Jay

    Jay, Did we cancel 4kg deals ?

    • @pyramid I've put some notes above in the post in relation to the major global stock shortage. TLDR; we're running off significantly limited stock availability and so we have had to reduce this one down to 3kg so we don't have expire the deal too prematurely.

      Full details above, or in my video I've address this also.

      Thanks for the upvote and ongoing support too!

      Jay

      • +3

        would kill for 10kg deals @aminozcomau

        • +1

          We've had a number of requests for larger bulk deals. Should the situation change down the line, this may be a possibility. Thanks for the suggestion and support @Securityclearance!

          Jay

  • +1

    Excellent, been hoping you guys would do another deal this month!

    Jay, if we want to order more than the 3kg is there additional credit for ectra bags of the WPI, or not this time?

    Edit: whoops, just read to the bottom of the post and saw the answer.

    • +1

      Thanks for the support @Srey!

      Yeah it's a 3kg cap this time around due to the massive global stock shortage (and wholesale pricing is currently out of control too due to no stock availability). So we do have to run this deal on a very limited supply.

      Just for anyone who missed it, the credit is capped for the 3kg amount. You can order more at the same price per unit, but there isn't additional credit beyond the 3kg offer above.

      Jay

  • Thanks Jay, is the Caramelised Dutch Cookie similar to biscoff? I have no idea about the cookie you mentioned

    • +1

      @knobbs yep, not too dissimilar.

      Here's a video Chiara put together on the flavour: https://www.instagram.com/p/C_87zO_PYW9/?hl=en

      That might explain it a little better than I can. It's been a super popular flavour for us.

      Thanks for the ongoing support!

      Jay

    • biscoff is a brand of Speculaas, but flavour may vary between brands. I would expect a cinnamon, nutmeg, glove etc flavours.

      • i was writing off the "biscoff-style flavour cos the bikkies spread were nauseating to me.

        but i will give it a shot now after seeing https://www.instagram.com/p/C_87zO_PYW9/c/18081343834515449/…
        1. ig comments
        2. one guy in video said it wasn't overly sweet as he anticipated
        3. more traditional Speculaas cinnamon flav.

        • Thanks for giving it a go @capslock janitor. Of course if you try it and it's not for you, please don't hesitate to reach out to our team as we can always send out an alternative flavour for you.

          Jay

    • No 5kg deal this time

    • +1

      @DraggyX, we should be able to send it today/tomorrow which should arrive by Friday unless there are any delays in transit.

      Yep we're very tight on supply so we have had to cap this one at 3kg, full details above in the post though (and also the video).

      Thanks for your interest!

      • Order finally went thru, heavy traffic from ozbarganers on the website :D

        • Sorry about that, our website is being hammered! Thanks for persisting!

          Jay

          • @aminozcomau: Just got an email, my payment is still not yet confirmed. I couldn't remove my old card on the website so I went with bank transfer payment, didn't realise that would take time since bank transfer is usually instantly

            • @DraggyX: @DraggyX would you mind sending through a direct message with your order number? We'll be able to take a look at this and confirm for you as a priority to avoid delays. Thanks in advance.

              Jay

              • @aminozcomau: Auspost won't deliver until monday and I cant pick it up until NY T.T

    Hi Jay,

    Any chance you can bring back Peanut Butter flavour? Thanks

    • +5

      @mate7 it is on the cards, but we do need to build a new peanut allergen room which won't happen in the immediate future. We do this to prevent cross contamination. But it is a top priority of ours, thank you for the feedback and suggestion!

      Jay

    • +3

      You tried getting get a "soft" flavour or unflavoured and throw some peanut butter or PB2 (Powdered Peanut Butter) in?

      • +1

        Never tried. But I usually use unflavoured for smoothies in which I add peanut butter.
        I also mix MacroMike Pea Protein with Amino Z Unflavoured which is usually good.

      • +1

        PB2 (Powdered Peanut Butter) in

        What is this witchcraft? I'm interested. I have a bag of unflavoured that I just can't get through. And Peanut butter is my weakness…

    • @bobloblawlawblog I am so sorry to hear about that poor experience.

      As we cannot message you directly on here, could you send through a direct message with your order number? I'll have Vanessa jump onto this as a top priority for you.

      Thanks and sorry for the stuff up, we'll make it right.

    When was the choc malt improved? I last ordered it in Feb 2024 so want to see if it's any different

    • Bought it after that date - and it is awesome. I believe they changed the formula from memory but could be incorrect.

      • Cool, my fave so far has been the Brazilian chocolate

    • @mrcosmo we haven't changed this flavour this year, it was changed last year. So if you didn't like it, it will be the same.

      If you've ordered anything you're unhappy with please don't hesitate to contact us for our 110% Guarantee of course.

      Thanks for your support of our brand!

      Jay

      • I was wondering too whether it was new and improved again.

        Perhaps to denote "New & Improved 2023" or similar could be clearer?

        • Good point @capslock janitor - I will take note of this. It was the original new and improved, but we haven't reverted the name back since. We'll look to make that change after this promo. Most appreciated.

          Jay

  • Just stocked up, was down to my last bag from previous deal. Shame about the size reduction but unfortunately the way the world works. Gotta keep the doors open in the end of the day.

    • Sorry you just missed it @Betrayal95 but I greatly appreciate your support to date. Yeah unfortunately there wasn't too much we could do with the quantities this time around, but the market is just so tight our hands were a bit tied by this. That said, we have kept the same unit price to keep things comparable.

      Thanks again!

      Jay

  • Now there is a signature & indulgent line, is there any chance to bring back the OLD original chocolate hazelnut - Circa October 2022? (not the late 2023 version)
    That was liquid ferrero rocher!!!

    Bought 4kg. Taro milk tea is a winner, and now with the Signature milk tea it's gonna be good. For those extra special days!

    Thank you Vanessa.

    • +1

      Thanks for the upvote @fegis!

      We will look to redo the choc hazelnut. I admit the 2023 version was a complete failure and sorry if you got that (but I trust we replaced it for you if you did?)

      Thank you for the new order and ongoing support!

      Jay

      • +2

        Yes you did, Vanesa reached out said there were some complaints and asked my views on the flavour.

        I previously wrote how impressed I was about this. That is a very good example of the flavor guarantee folks!
        All my 2023 hazelnut were replaced!

        • Fantastic, glad you were looked after :)

          Jay

      • +1 for choc hazelnut. I'd even take the late 2023 version over no choc hazelnut flavour. Also please bring back mango flavour if possible!

        • Thanks for the feedback @Xastros and I have taken note of your feedback on the choc hazelnut.

          Mango will be coming back soon, keep an eye out. We weren't able to get that one ready for this promo though, but it has been a frequently requested flavour which we will be bringing back. It took a very long time to redevelop.

          Jay

  • Hey Jay - it might have been a copy paste - but you might need to tweak the following line in the post :)

    Thanks again, time for a second order this week :P

    "Club Z: Our Club Z membership program is a paid subscription with the most common membership being $9.99/month with $10 back/month for each monthly renewal. This is different to having an account on our website. We frequently run Club Z bonus offers, such as in this deal where anyone who was already an existing active and paid Club Z member (immediately prior to launching this promo) will receive a total of $65 back in Z Points ($75 for 5kg). Full info here(aminoz.com.au)."

      Oooops! Thank you so much @kikxz!

      My posts are so darn long that despite 3 checks by me (and 2 by Vanessa) - we missed that detail!

      I've fixed that now. Thank you so much, else that could have caused quite a bit of confusion for some.

    Long time customer but have not ordered this deal specifically since 2022, keen to get back in the game!

    Edit: Btw the AminoZ shaker bottle has really bad durability issues. I think mine only lasted a couple weeks before forming a crack.

    • Thanks for the ongoing support @exit!

      I appreciate the feedback on the shaker. If it only lasted 2 weeks then please contact us, we'll refund or replace for you (whatever you prefer). They should last quite a while even after regular washes in the dishwasher.

        Mine gets thrown and knocked around a lot so that might be why. Still, most of my other shakers last longer.

  • Great flavours! Thanks for all the awesome deals so far—fingers crossed for more in the new year! Either way, I’ll keep ordering because your protein tastes amazing and has solid macros!

    • Thank you so much for the support @MohTheory!

      I'll pass this along to the team, they'll be really chuffed with that feedback.

      I also have my fingers crossed that this WPI situation eases up next year so we can do some bigger deals.

      Appreciate the kind words!

  • Is Whey Protein Isolate easy to digest? I used to get bloated when having Whey protein shakes so I switched to vegan proteins. Might make the switch back if anyone has any input?

    • +2

      @jsediv WPI is highly processed and has around 1% lactose, which is far less than WPC for example. But it will come down to your personal situation.

      You are welcome to give our product a go and if it doesn't agree with you, please feel free to contact us and we'll support it with our 110% Guarantee (refund, 110% back in credit or send out another product such as our Vegan protein).

      Thanks for your interest!

    Just placed an order again, I should have asked first though - which of the two tea flavours is closer to your classic boba milk tea from say Chatime etc?

    Thanks!

    • +1

      Thanks @Josh213! Appreciate your support as always!

      The Signature Milk Tea is going to much closer than the Earl Grey Milk Tea. We went through many milk tea's to try to get this as close as we could in a protein powder form.

      If you wanted to change anything, please feel free to send through a direct message and Vanessa can look after you.

  • Just curious, how come unflavoured is quite heavy in calories compared to the rest considering it's unflavoured? Is it just because of the higher protein content?

    • +1

      @pakikanga yes correct. It is 90% protein. Despite its low carb and fat profile, protein is roughly 4 calories per gram and so it isn't a low calorie food by any means. That said, the serving size will be the smallest given the much higher protein density.

      I hope this clarifies and thanks for asking!

      Jay

  • Hi OP, can you use existing credit and still be eligible for the new credit if i buy 3kg? (E.g. use $30 credit and pay for the rest, do i still get the bonus $30?)

    Also any info on how the Mint Choc Chip flavour is? Is it similar to Choc Chip Ice Cream flavour? Thanks.

    • @geeaad yes absolutely and thanks for asking. Feel free to use existing credit - you will still qualify for this deal. Consider existing credit just like paying by any other method.

      We have the following flavour description for the mint choc chip, which I feel pretty accurately describes it (with some flare!): "A refreshing blend of peppermint, perfectly balanced with the creamy richness of milk chocolate. If you're a fan of the classic ice cream flavour combination, you're in for a delightful treat."

      It's pretty popular, but if you don't like it feel free to hit us up for our 110% Guarantee of course.

      Thanks!

      Thanks for your interest @zozuc!

      If you're needing a protein powder to help with recovery, our WPI would be suitable. It's hard for me to say exactly for your unique circumstances, but a WPI is a fast digesting protein powder, commonly used after exercise to help facilitate recovery. You can also take it during the day to boost your overall protein intake if needed beyond a balanced food based diet.

      Sorry I cannot be more specific here, but I hope this provides some guidance.

      Maybe also the Amino Z electrolyte powder would be good for your purpose?
