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!

        • Thanks for that insight @ClintonL. That will likely be a consequence of the malt and cocoa that we use.

          I completely understand your point and I will raise this with our team to see how we can further improve this. You shouldn't see the same issues in the non-chocolate versions, but it's also not choc malt 😂

          Thanks again for the insight.

  • Site's being hammered but managed to get my order through! My 8th order with you guys!

    • Wow thanks for the massive support @Vavoom! You're not wrong, our website has never seen so much traffic before. Thank you so much for your persistence despite the inconvenience.

    Awesome! Up to my last bag from the last sale, fantastic product and customer service.

    Worst part of this deal is deciding which flavours to try haha

    • 😂 thank you so much @edumacation! We have gone a bit nuts on the flavour options :)

      I'll be sharing this feedback with the team. Thanks again!

      Jay

  • Is the mint flavour powdery and fluffy? The old one was great and last promotion you changed it but we’re looking at getting the original ingredients back?

    • Thanks for asking @FsYK. The mint choc chip is still the changed version as our old supplier could no longer produce the flavouring. We will be looking to modify it again, but for now it does remain the same as what was available last promotion.

      Thanks again.

      Jay

  • Thanks OP

    I find the unflavoured to be flavourful as is. Straight up to the point + just perfect and non-fine dusty/ in the air/ chalky when mixing.

    The favoured ones I found to be just too sweet for my liking.

    Grabbing a few more kg’s.
    Let’s have a 5 to 10kg deals in the not distant future :)

    • Thanks for the new order @YoursTruly!

      Appreciate the feedback and I'll take note of this to share with the team.

      Jay

    • I have a bag of unflavoured from the last deal, any suggestions on using this?

      • I just mix it with water and drink.
        Prefer it as is.

        The other varieties I tasted were too sweet for me.

        Perhaps blend it with some berries or banana + a dash of milk?

        • I tried it yesterday. It was a bit hard to stomach tbh, felt like drinking some sort of "cursed milk".

      • I like to mix it with blue Powerade for an intra workout drink

  • Bought.

    Also great to see AminoZ being displayed (and used) at Bodyfit Marrackville for their protein shakes.

    • Thanks @dottydotdot Amazing to know that Bodyfit at Marrickville are using our product!

      Appreciate the support as always!

  • Deal comes just in time! Ordered 3 packs of WPI. Thanks.

    • Thanks for the order @fatty08! I really appreciate the support!

      Jay

  • Amino Z website getting slammed, understandably. I've got plenty of protein left from my last purchase but I want MOAR.
    I'll be back.

    While I'm waiting, can anyone recommend the least foamy flavours? Most of the flavours are awesome but a couple have been a bit foamy.

    I use a mini blender thing at work and a shaker at home.
    Work one has been better, but I keep different flavours at work so it's possibly not so much the flavour but the device.

    • Yeah we are seeing extremely high traffic levels presently, but are in the process of implementing further updates to improve stability. Thanks for your patience and sorry for the experience.

      Can I ask which flavours you've found particularly foamy? From memory the vanilla flavour may be the foamiest of the lot. Generally the ones with the higher fat content will have the least foam associated with them, along with the chocolate flavours (but most should settle within 5-10 seconds of shaking).

      Jay

      • Hi Jay, thanks for your ongoing presence and responsiveness.

        I've got heaps of flavours on the go but offhand I think Pandan & Coconut Gelato & Melon Milk,
        Possibly also indulgent white chocolate, fruity cereal & taro milk but not sure.

        Hard to certain as I'm currently in a choc phase and having mainly choc-banana, brigadeiro, choc malt, and choc cherry. This matches up with your comment about the chocolate ones as these seem less foamy.

        I've got on the site now though at least :)

        • Ok thanks @tazmaniak, that feedback is helpful and I will pass this along to our team as we continue to work on our flavours.

          The website is far more stable now. We had to perform some major upgrades as we did not anticipate so much traffic on there. Thankfully the experience should be much better now. Thank you so much for your understanding and patience!

          Jay

          • @aminozcomau: Ordered successfully!

            I'll check more thoroughly to determine if it's specific ones and possibly rule out the way I have been shaking them if that's the cause.
            I'll provide an update directly through to your helpful team in due course.

            Overall I'm very satisfied with the products and will continue to buy them. :)

              @tazmaniak: Thanks so much! I appreciate your understanding also while the site really struggled.

        • Hey man i use a mini frother and portable blender (assuming you use one of the two).

          They work great at making sure that there are no dry clumps however the trade off is that it'll always be foamy than mixing it by hand

    • what mini blender?

  • My first time buying from you guys! My brothers wanted this deal and I told them to wait and you guys pulled through. Thank you so much <3

    • Thanks for the order @I Smell Pennies! I really appreciate you giving us a go!

      Jay

  • To say your website is getting absolutely molested by OzB is an understatement.

    But thanks for the deal none the less..!

      The traffic levels are nuts currently, sorry for the experience @bemybubble

      I promise you we are working on it.

      Thank you for the support!

  • So I have credit from Piror purchase, during which part of the checkout do I select to use those credits first?

    • Thanks for asking @Happy252

      Please ensure you're logged in. Once you get to the payment section, there should be a checkbox there to use your Z Points. Just select that and you can apply.

      I hope this helps.

    Other stores take notes. This is how you do a deal ad

    • Thank you for those very kind words @jediw :) I really appreciate the support of our brand!

      Jay

    • +1

      @jediw

      Absolutely
      And customer services too

  • I would love the match or earl grey flavours but am hypersensitive to caffeine. Is it possible to do tea flavours without caffeine?

    • +1

      @jediw honestly, we tried to do tea flavours without the tea component and it did not taste good, so that's why we opted to launch these flavours with real tea in them.

      To be transparent, it is very unlikely that we will be launching a tea flavour without caffeine in it in the foreseeable future. These tea flavours took us almost a year to develop as there was considerable R&D involved in getting them right. It certainly may be possible to create a viable version without the caffeine component, but I would expect this to take quite a while given how many hurdles we've had to overcome with these two new releases.

      I'll take note on this and pass this to the team, but I certainly don't want to make any promises here we cannot keep.

      Thank you for asking!

      Jay

  • Still a month or so away from being close to an order sadly.
    Vouch for the WPI though; love it. Also keen to try the protein water when it's 'sample-able'.

    Personal favourite flavours: Taro Milk, Aussie Choc Malt, White Chocolate, Vanilla Creamy.

    • Thanks for sharing and I appreciate the support @FrugalHoward!

      We certainly will be working on getting those samples available in the foreseeable future.

    What is the origin of WPI and flavors? On your website it only says that blended and packed in Australia.

    For example, earl grey tea flavor, are you using Sri Lanka origin extracts?

    It would be great if you can provide more details on the source/origin of WPI.

    • +3

      Thanks for asking @Ahoon

      The WPI itself is sourced from USA.

      Our flavours are sourced from both Australia and USA. The actual tea itself is from China, but we have added flavouring in there from Australia (for Earl Grey) and USA (for Signature Milk Tea).

      I hope this clarifies.

    Still got a fair bit from the old deal but just commenting to say that deals from amino Z are always the best value for money wpi on the market

    • Thanks for the upvote and kind words @eetswaShifty! I really appreciate the support!

      Jay

  • In future might be worth staggering the marketing comms for the deals so the OzBargain post, SMS and email doesn't all go out as the same time, resulting in the website being hammered and slowing to a crawl. Could make the post here first, then send the SMS and emails later in the day or a day or two later?

    Also thought there would be a bit more info about the Protein Water? Don't think it mentioned much in the video. It's like a soft launch? Don't you want to sell lots of this product?:)

    ie. Why would you buy that instead of having normal WPI? What are the differences, etc? It just says Protein Water (Just Released) and that is all the info we get? :P

    • +2

      @Moo Deng yes agreed. As the website was struggling, I realised we had already send out both email and SMS all at once…not very good planning on my behalf.

      With the Protein Water, we have done a bit of a soft launch on this as we have very limited product and it is at a higher price point (due to much higher ingredient costs). It will be 30% off using this code.

      The key difference is the flavour profile. It's more a cordial style beverage which you mix in with water (think comparable to BCAA or EAA products). Whereas standard WPI is more milky in comparison. Sorry for the lack of info previously but I hope this clarifies.

      Jay

  • My grand total is $128.27 is instead of $119.99.

    • +1

      Probably because you picked the flavours that cost more? Earl grey for example is one.

      • Ah possibly. Thanks for the info.

    • +1

      Thanks @Jaystea! And that would be likely why @Tiredman

      The three cookies flavours and the two new tea flavours will have an extra cost for each bag associated with them due to higher ingredient costs and additional manufacturing processes we need to undertake for these flavours. Completely optional if you want to opt for these flavours at the higher price of course.

      Jay

  • In my haste, I accidentally forgot to use my currently active aminoz points - are you able to kindly alter this for me please Jay? My order confirmation hadn't even come through yet! It's order 109982877.

    • Yes absolutely, I'll get Vanessa onto this right away for you @Jaystea

      Also feel free to send over a direct message at any time, but I have passed this along to Vanessa now so she should reach out shortly.

      Jay

      • You guys are amazing as always - thank you Jay and Vanessa.

  • Any chance of getting WPC with same deal instead of WPI?

    • +1

      @Wrongguy we stopped selling a WPC earlier this year due to the popularity of our WPI product. We have no plans to bring back the WPC in the near future (plans may change, but just to be transparent).

      I hope this clarifies and thanks for asking.

      Jay

  • Quick question on your refund/exchange. What happens to the product if we don’t like it? Do we send it back? Does it get thrown out? I feel bad for wasting 1kg of powder if I don’t like the flavour. Do you guys sell like a sample pack to try or something

    • +3

      @jingy if you open it up and don't like it you may as well keep it. We do cop quite a loss on these, but it's also pointless sending back an opened product that we cannot use anyway. I do feel it's our responsibility to onboard that risk as we're selling the product.

      We do however have samples here in most of our flavours.

      Thanks for asking!

      Jay

  • Awesome to see another deal - have bought an obscene amount of your protein over the years, and it's always been excellent. Your book was also a super interesting read Jay, good stuff!

    • Thank you so much for those kind words @ngengerous! I really appreciate the support!

      Jay

  • i mix with milk, what flavours suggest and popular ?

    • Thanks for your interest @Fmfame!

      Our top flavours are Chocolate, Vanilla, Aussie Choc Malt, Iced Coffee and now Cookies & Cream.

      But our three new releases are selling very well and will go well with milk - Caramelised Dutch Cookie, Signature Milk Tea and Earl Grey Milk Tea.

      I hope this provides some help, but I'm sure others will be able to share their own opinions.

      Jay

      • Taro, any of their chocolate or vanilla etc

  • What are the strongest flavours? I got mint choc chip last time and it just tasted like minty egg. Was pretty horrid

    • Sorry you didn't like it @universe but if you ever don't really like something please feel free to reach out for a replacement flavour as part of our 110% Guarantee.

      Choc Cherry is a stronger flavour (the cherry is stronger), as is the mint choc chip (the mint is a strong flavour note). Fruity Cereal also is relatively strong in flavour.

      On the weaker side would be vanilla, melon milk, creme caramel, pandan and white chocolate. These are more neutral flavours.

      I hope this helps.

  • I have never understood why there are so many comments and questions after these deals…

    • 15+ flavours lol

    • For many it's probably their first time purchasing?

  • Thank you.
    3rd order placed in the last 12 months. Great products!
    Loved Iced Coffee, Unflavoured and Choc Honeycomb.
    Now trying some new ones!

    • Thank you so much for the ongoing support @TJsDen! I (and the team) are very grateful!

  • Thanks ordered, looks like I lost all my status credits from the June order this year though :(

    • @aurotaro unless you spent them, they don't expire so they shouldn't get removed. If you believe there is an error, could you send through a direct message and Vanessa can look into this directly for you? Thanks in advance.

      I'll also give her a heads up about this.

      Jay

      What recipe? Just with water/milk?

      • I use a range of things depending on what I want, if I want lower calories or something more of a treat.

        One of my favourite with Amino Z is using their Coconut Ice Cream WPI and mixing it with coconut water+unsweetened coconut milk and a small bit of xantham gum. For low calorie/high protein though I usually just stick to either light milk or unsweetened almond milk, protein powder and xantham gum. Their taro flavour is another personal highlight.

    Can't checkout, have been banned/rate limited. What a joke.

    • Could you try now?

      Sorry for the inconvenience. We did have some security measures in place but I've made an update here.

      Alternatively the security measure should auto lift in about 10 minutes.

      Why's it a joke you snowflake?

  • Hi Jay

    Sorry to hear about supply shortages, luckily I still got 6kg from you guys so that would outlast early 2025 for me haha

    Just ordered another 3kg to try out the new milk tea flavours, really enjoyed the taro milk tea and the cookie series :)

    Will there be a protein water per kg deal like this or just 30% off? happy to send through another order for protein water if it's just 30%!

    Thanks for all the great flavours and supporting my fitness journey

    • Thanks for the new order and the ongoing support @usofkincute!

      Unlikely we will have a comparable protein water deal due to the very high cost of ingredients for this product. As you highlighted, it is 30% off using this code though.

      Thanks again!

      Jay

  • I've just been able to get my order in, I had to refresh the page a few times when I was in the checkout, and now I don't think I've actually made an account with my order, I think it might've unticked that box when I refreshed.
    Will I still be able to get the credit as part of this deal and for the samples I bought?

    • Thanks for the order @Fishballs!

      Don't stress, the system will auto create an account for you and you'll get your Z Point store credit. Any issues feel free to reach out to us!

  • So slow, but at least the site is still functional!

    I couldn't see it in the original post, but you should mention that it's free shipping for smaller orders as well.

    I just wanted 1 bag but just as I was about to order a little while back, you changed min order to $75. I figured you might have free shipping for black Friday sales, and I was correct! So I was finally able to order my 1 bag with free shipping. Thanks!

    • Thanks for your patience and sorry about the site being so slow @fruxo, we are getting hammered.

      We did have to implement a free shipping tier on typical orders because the cost of shipping is increasing and it just wasn't feasible on the smaller orders any more. Glad you managed to grab something though!

      Jay

  • what's the expiry dates on these batch?

    • Thanks for asking @Fmfame. Best before dates will be 18-24 months away, it's all fresh stock.

      Jay

  • Which of the milk teas have a stronger tea taste?
    and has the Pandan flavour improved since launch? Got it once and it was too salty with minimal pandan taste

    • @cktftw I'd say they are similar, it's just different types of teas. The Earl Grey is a typical earl grey flavour, whereas the milk tea is a blend of Assam and black teas.

      The Pandan flavour is still the same, but we are working on rolling out an updated flavour in the coming weeks.

      Thanks for your interest!

      Jay

  • Fantastic deal anyway, I can't drink these fast enough 😂

    • Thanks for the kind words @donkeyhokey!
