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!

      • Ok thanks Jay.

      • Problem solved. Thanks Vanessa and Jay 😊

        • +1

          Great, sorry for the issue and thanks for your patience on this @jopiter69.

          Jay

  • Can't resist to try indulge flavours so had to do another 3kg order…

    • Thanks for the new order @pyramid! I hope you like them.

      Jay

  • It seems as though nobody has asked yet this time around, and since you keep adding flavours I figured I'd ask again:

    What are the least sweet tasting options? The banana one I quite like, the matcha and melon were ok but bordering on too sweet for me, I wasn't a fan of the other asian flavours.

    • Hi @SKobb, thanks for asking.

      Iced Coffee and Smooth Milk Chocolate will be two of the less sweeter flavoured options. Other than that, the unflavoured version has no sweetener added at all.

      I hope this helps and thanks for your interest!

      Jay

  • Strawberry mixed into greek yoghurt…

    Not usually a fan of strawberry but this mix helps me hit my numbers and tastes pretty good! ordering the banana to try the same

    • +1

      Thanks for sharing @WhereThouArt! Glad you like the strawberry and please don't hesitate to reach out if the banana doesn't hit the mark for you.

      Jay

  • I feel like I should have $55 worth of credit point from the last order. However my account only has 105 points @aminozcomau. Can I please get you to look at my account?

    • @Misogi Kumagawa would you mind sending through a direct message with your email associated with your account? Vanessa can look into this for you and rectify any issues. Thanks in advance and I appreciate your support!

      Jay

      • Thanks Jay. This got sorted by by Vanessa. My order arrived today and I can finally name my top 3 favourite flavours in no paricular order.

        Aussie Choc Malt
        Choc Cherry Delight
        Creme Caramel

        Since my last order, I've come across a few of your shorts/ads and I want to give a shout out to whoever is responsible for the sountrack music choice. Gang Starr, Nas…. two of my favourite artists. Can you tell whoever picked these guys for soundtrack that they the MVP.

        • Thanks so much for the feedback @Misogi Kumagawa!

          I'll definitely pass all of this feedback along. We have recently been doing a bit more on social and so I am very grateful for that feedback.

          Thanks again for your support!

          Jay

  • Hi Jay,

    I made an order on Tuesday evening and while my order is still processing, my housemate who made an order yesterday afternoon has already had his delivered this morning. Is there anyway you can look into why this may be the case?

    Thanks for the deal :)

  • Is that $11 heavy package fee for remote shipping new don't recall it last time. I mean totally understandable but also still :(

    • Would you mind sending through a direct message with your postcode and what you're trying to order? Vanessa can look into this. We do have an extra charge in place for particularly heavy orders to very remote areas as shipping can be exorbitant. But please shoot over a message and Vanessa can advise further on this.

      Thanks @DuckWearingTopHat

  • Hi. Noticed in the comments there's two new flavours? Mango and stronger pandan.

    Any other new flavours coming and is it possible to order these new flavours using this deal? I'm willing to wait

    Also do you have the protein % (protein/100g) on these new flavours too?

    • Hi @Friedchicken, currently those flavours are not yet available to order.

      The new pandan will likely be available mid next week, but we wont make it available for purchasing until it is actually produced.

      The reason being that because we have not ywlet produced this in a commercial quantity, there is always a chance of some unforeseeable issue cropping up when we produce in bulk. While unlikely, it has happened in the past.

      Mango is going to be released but we do not yet have a confirmed date. This likely will not be available until after this deal has ended.

      Thanks for asking and for your interest!

      Jay

      • Super keen on the stronger Pandan, I will wait until next week before placing my order

        • +2

          Thanks in advance @dajackal. I will be updating the post once it's live.

  • Are there any plans for further berry WPI flavours, e.g. Blueberry & Raspberry? Strawberry is one of my favourites, so was curious :) Made an order yesterday, excited to try the Mint Choc Chip & Dutch Cookie

      Thanks for the new order @geeaad!

      No firm plans presently on those, but they are on our list of flavour ideas. That said, don't hold your breath because our flavour ideas list is very, very long!

      I will take note of your feedback here too.

      Thanks again and I hope you enjoy the new order.

  • Hey Jay the 5L storage tin- roughly how many bags of WPI will fit in one? Is it airtight?

    • +1

      Hi @Levathian, thanks for asking. You should be able to get two bags of WPI into it and yes it is airtight.

      Thanks also for the upvote!

      Jay

  • How do others store this? In the bag or purchase the jar?

    Are there other alternatives to the jar and how do you measure the correct weight of powder?

    • +1

      Hi @cheap4321, most of our customers will just use the pouches. Some will purchase a jar to transfer the powder, but it is the minority.

      In terms of alternatives, the most common that I am aware of is that some people will use snap lock containers or similar.

      In terms of the weight of the powder, do you mean for a serve? A scoop is included which will equate to approximately one serve.

      Thanks for asking and I hope this helps.

      • Thanks on the reply and sorry I didn't see that you had already written this in the description up the top.

        I've made an order so looking forward in trying out to see if this is my new go-to place. :D

  • Hi just checking 1kg protein should be 49.99 then discount or full price then the 30%off it keeps putting it back to full price I only need the 1kg

    • +1

      @Jono258 I've just checked this.

      You are correct that there should be 30% off for the 1kg on its own. Assuming that this isn't any of the cookie or tea flavours (that carry an additional cost), the calculation should be as follows:

      • Initial price before discount: $62.49
      • 30% off price: $43.74
      • Plus $9.99 shipping: $53.73

      That is assuming that coupon code OZB-BLACK has been applied.

      Is your screen showing something else? If so, please don't hesitate to send through a direct message with your order and email and Vanessa can fix up your cart if needed.

      Thanks for the support of the deal!

  • Any plans of offering non sweetener based flavours other than unflavoured?

    • No firm plans I'm afraid @Pricebeat, I'll provide some background for you.

      We have had a few requests for unsweetened versions and this is something that we have experimented with a little in our R&D. We prototypes we created were okay, but are relatively niche in their market appeal we felt as compared to our standard powders. The reason being is because drinking them straight is not particularly enjoyable (at least for most) and would need to have sweetener added, or mixed in to something like a smoothie).

      That's not to say that this isn't a feasible product. Our biggest challenge is our limited capacity and we therefore need to be very selective with the products we produce. Going down the route of creating unsweetened versions would increase our product range substantially for something that will have a far more limited customer base. As a small business we cannot make the metrics work as we do need to focus on where the demand lies at this stage in our journey.

      So for now, we did decide to focus our efforts on sweetened versions only as this is where the majority of the demand has been from our customers. We have not ruled this out as an option down the line though.

      Anyway, I hope this explains why we haven't released anything beyond unflavoured as a completely unsweetened protein as of yet. This does remain on our ideas list and will continue to be reviewed for feasibility.

      Thanks for asking!

      Jay

      • Hi Jay, thanks for the explanation and completely understand the reasoning. What I meant though, was that instead of sweetner if you had similar amount sugar or something else other than a sweetner? I am not up to date with the replacements that can be used. I do like it sweet but I can't get used to the taste of sweetner.

        • +1

          Ah I see.

          In terms of sweetener, sugar is highly desirable for the flavour profile so I know exactly what you mean.

          The drawback with adding sugar instead of thaumatin would be that this would bump up the sugar (and calories) to a point where it too would become an extremely niche product. We have had a product in the past where we did have sugar mixed in with a protein (both for flavour but also function, as some people do like the carbs there for training), but this product was a complete flop and barely sold at all. The vast majority of our customers do want a low carb/sugar protein powder and so this is the route we've gone down.

          Further to support your position around the sweetener, previously we used stevia which is notably different from sugar. It carries a very distinct flavour and we did get a number of complaints about this. So we transitioned over to thaumatin which is also a natural sweetener, but is more comparable to sugar from a flavour standpoint (though not identical). It has been a much better option for our flavouring. But once again, it isn't sugar.

          There are other options on the market. Probably the most common one is sucralose which is an artificial sweetener. This one is common, but also different from sugar.

          So ultimately to be completely transparent, I can say with confidence that we won't be going down the route of adding sugar as a sweetener into our protein powders, especially after our previously failed experiment. I am also unaware of any proteins out there that use sugar as their sole sweetening agent. They may exist, but most do try to keep the carbs and sugars as low as possible.

          Jay

          • @aminozcomau: Thanks, I guess I will just have to continue using this for now. I have ordered more and see how I like it.

            • @Pricebeat: No problems, I do hope that provided some clarity. Thanks for the new order!

              Jay

  • Trying to lose weight at the min. Very overweight so eating healthier/smaller portions and started swimming.

    What protein do you recommend have been told to avoid whey protein if trying to lose fat and not doing any weights.

    • What was the reason to avoid whey protein?

    • Thanks for asking @darcy07

      As @grack asked, was there a specific reason why you need to avoid whey protein? For example, allergy, intolerance, avoiding animal products etc?

      If that's the case, you may look to a vegan option which won't contain dairy or lactose, for example this one which we make.

      Speaking broadly, for most, a whey protein will be suitable if you are looking for a protein powder to help assist for weight loss as part of a balanced diet. Vegan is a good alternative to this should you have restrictions around consuming whey.

      I hope this helps and thanks for your interest.

      Jay

      • I've heard it sometimes contains sugars and also can dehydrate you. Vs plant based?

        is there an advantage to whey over plant based?

        • There will be a very small amount of sugar from the whey, but it's negligible. Unflavoured whey is roughly 1% lactose (sugar).

          Depending upon the flavour you choose this will alter the sugar percentage. But you can refer to the table above.

          That said, while this is very low in sugar, our vegan protein unflavoured has no sugar. Flavoured versions will have a little.

          I am unaware of whey protein specifically dehydrating you though and am unable to comment on this.

          Whey is a better quality protein and will generally have a better flavour profile relative to the vegan counterparts. Vegan obviously has the advantage of being plant based and lactose free.

          I hope this helps.

  • Jay the girls have already sorted me out but I thought I'd give feedback on the new milk tea flavours.

    Taste wise they are pretty good, nice fragrant but could be a bit sweeter like the taro milk tea.

    Both seem to have clumping issues when mixed with water - haven't tried milk. I also mix with yoghurt which has turned out tasty.

    • Thanks for the feedback on the new tea flavours @RockyK9

      That is very helpful. I will take note on this and pass this along to the team. We will most certainly take this on board.

      Glad the team has looked after you too. Thanks again for this, I really appreciate you taking the time to share.

  • Hey Jay, I just thought I’d say that I really appreciate your customer service & replacing my damaged bags, so I just put in another order on your website so you’re not losing too much $. Thanks again

    • Thanks for the feedback @Levathian and I'm sorry again about the poor experience previously, though I'm glad the team looked after you on that.

      I greatly appreciate the new order despite this. The support means a lot to me and the whole team. I'll share this feedback internally as they would love to see these comments.

      Thanks again and please do not hesitate to reach out should you have any further issues.

      Thanks for asking @zman09

      Currently we only have the individual samples here, but we are currently working on a pack option which shouldn't be too far away. We have had this requested a number of times and given the wide variety of flavours we have, it makes sense.

      I appreciate the suggestion and thanks for the support!

      Jay

  • Hi Jay thanks for another great offer. Would love to hear other supplements you recommend especially if you use it. Also your thoughts on l carnitine and l theanine?

    • Thanks for the kind words @TheFIREnanceGuy!

      Personally speaking, I do keep my supplement stack fairly lean and mainly use Complete Pre, EAA, WPI and Dextrose. These I would consider my staples mainly for my training. I'll take some Greens if I'm travelling too.

      The others to consider that I will use personally on occasion would be Creatine (strength/hypertrophy) and Acetyl L-Carnitine (Cognitive function/Fat metabolism). I do like ALCAR personally, but honestly it can be hard to quantify what benefit you yield from it.

      In terms of Theanine, I haven't personally used this but there is some research around cognitive function, relaxation and sleep.

      Ultimately it will come down to your needs and what works best for you. I hope that helps!

  • Must be very busy, postage usually takes 1-2 days but it's now day 6 in the hands of couriersplease and no movement.. Anyone else?

    • Lots of sales at the moment, probably a lot of stuff in the post. 6 business days?

      • Only 4 business days with couriers please, but there's usually movement on the weekend too which isnt the case this time.
        Anyway, black Friday has overloaded the postage system, not worried yet, was just curious.

    • Yep, this is day 6 in hand with couriers please. Picked up last Thursday and very little movement in the tracking. Last I can see was Friday still in Syd saying processed for delivery.

      • Thanks Jay, appreciate it! My previous order was the same package, just with the box inverted. This time it had the black Amino Z logo, etc on the outside. Not looking for a refund, but now cannot trust this will not occur again in the future, so will no longer select this option.

        • +1

          Yeah turning the box inside out is standard process and I will look further into why this didn't occur for your order.

          I have let Vanessa know about this issue also but at the very least we will refund you on the difference.

          Thanks again for highlighting this and once again my apologies for our mistake.

I have been looking for a new protein powder I can trust, with good support and people who care - looks like you tick all the boxes and then some. Thanks for believing in the product and treating your customers as many others should. Can't wait to try the protein!
