BioX Xtreme Power Whey Complex: Rocky Road 20 November 2010 16:27 (permalink)
Taste: 9.5/10 - very surprised by this! never had rocky road so didnt know what to expect. tasted like crushed up chocolate biscuits. reminded me of my favourite biscuit as a kid - remeos or something like that? i was going to add dextrose as i always put it in my shakes anyway for pwo but didnt bother and this was still one of the nicest proteins ive ever tried. with dextrose pwo it would probably be mind blowing :p at least as good as if not better than cnp propeptide chocolate malt. high praise indeed.

Mixability: 10/10 - mixed perfectly in 300ml water, not a hint of any powder left over. wasnt too thin or too thick, id recommend trying in 250ml water though if you want it a little thicker...i imagine this would be nicer.

obviously i cant comment on its effects but highly recomended taste/texture wise. only thing that would make this better would be little chocolatey chunks or biscuit bits. though that would probably take away from its profile somewhat :p

many thanks to echo supps for this sample! tempted to buy a tub.

      I also tried mine today.

      Taste : 6/10
      Mixability : 10/10

      Mixed very well with minimal effort, but the flavour was far too sweet for my taste.  I understand the flavour is meant to be sweet as it's trying to mimick a desert comprising of  ice cream, marshmallows and nuts, but it was just too much for me.  Nice for the first few sips then sickly from that point on unfortunately.

      Thanks for the sample :)

          Sorry to hear you didn't like the sweetness NM - it is a pretty sweet protein shake though so if you don't like sweetness then its probably not the best option for you!

            I received the BioX Performance 'Orange Creamsicle' flavour sample.

            I tried it yesterday morning after my work-out.

            Taste - 8/10

            I was a little skeptical about this flavour if i'm honest, however, when I tried this I was pleasantly suprised, it is a refreshing flavour and doesn't contain any bitter or nasty aftertaste's which I was kind of expecting.  It is very different to most other flavours I have tried.

            Mixability - 10/10

            Mixes absolutely perfectly when mixed with water and I added the powder to the shaker first then poured the water in, shook for a few seconds and all the powder was mixed in and no clumps so couldn't really ask for more. (I used a shaker with a grill, so no special shaker/blender used).

            I am in two minds whether to purchase a smaller tub of this flavour as I do enjoy it and it makes a change, however, its hard to establish whether I could deal with a whole tub of it. Orange is one of those flavours that I really have to be in the mood to want...........I will deliberate (probably give in and buy a tub, lol)

            Thanks again to Echo for the sample and quick delivery as always

              Thanks for the review Nick - I am in the same boat I'm not a HUGE fan of sweet protein shakes but its so damn tasty!

                I received today the BioX Performance 'Orange Creamsicle' tub I won with the MT competition. I tried at as soon as I got home from work

                Taste - 9/10

                I was hoping it was this one the flavour they sent me... and it is
                Taste is not to strong, neither to mild and most important, not too sweet... let's say is just right. I have tried it with milk and really liked it.

                Mixability - 10/10

                Mixes perfectly with a spoon, no lumps at all. One of the best mixing whey I tried.

                Thanks again to Echo and MT
