Awesome. I'm about a month in with that combo and loving it. Feeling good, adding size, and staying lean after my show.

Hey thanks man...they list amount of items, do they list/describe them by name? Or is it the good ole 'vitamin c'

No prob, it was an interesting question so I kept it in mind when I received this order. They do list the exact item names and quantities and proper weight. Value for each is 10 cents USD and contents is gift. No postage listed.

Gonna make some ice cream tonight with it. Not typically a peppermint fan (tho I don't dislike it) but I have yet to have a select flavor that wasn't great.

White chocolate mint review:
Invalid Link Removed
Used my standard ice cream recipe-
2sc protein (WCM obviously)
1c plain ff Greek yogurt
2c almond milk
2/3c water
Upon opening the tub I expected a peppermint scent, but there was little to none. Even sticking my face it it was very weak which surprised me as peppermint is typically such a strong smell. Also expected some type of red flakes or something but the powder is just plain off white (same color as gourmet vanilla).
Once I mixed the powder with the milk and yogurt the smell really came out. Not overpowering but plenty strong to smell without getting your nose wet.
Flavor: this is exactly as advertised in that it's a very mild white chocolate, with a fairly strong peppermint flavor. The peppermint is not overly "minty" and is closer to the mint taste you'd get from a Girl Scout cookie or Andes chocolate. Nothing like a candy cane in that level of mint strength. The white chocolate is very light and I would say is more like a vanilla than a true white chocolate. I imagine if you took a scoop of gourmet vanilla and a scoop of WCM one after the other, they would have a very similar base. This might also be the perfect combo for someone who wants an even milder mint flavor (hint of mint
).
While this is not my favorite of the select flavors (I'm also not a mint guy) - sd/cnc are still tops for me- this is definitely another great addition to the lineup. I've had quite a few mint chocolate flavors and this is one of the most enjoyable even as someone who doesn't particularly care for them. I'll have no issue taking down all 4 tubs I picked up. Full rankings for me go: SD/CNC, CPBC/GV/Blondie, WCM, MC
Mix: the powder is incredibly thick and so dense it almost clumps but yet still mixes completely with ease. As with the other select blends this mixes incredibly thick and actually made my ice cream expand so much it overflowed the maker ha. It made an amazingly creamy mixture that was a very enjoyable texture.
Overall: another solid flavor from PES. Definitely not my personal top flavor, but I think in a limited edition it's perfect. Not something most people would want year round but enjoyable for a stint? absolutely. For anyone who enjoys peppermint or even really any mint flavor, is imagine this would be near the top of their list of flavors available.

Out of anticipation because I got an email notifying me my BF order finally made it's way past Aus customs and to my doorstep.
What do you guys mix with your Gourmet vanilla for shakes? Banana and blueberries are obviously to do, but trying to think of something that would go with cinnamon? (for Cinnamon Toast Crunch)
Or anything that mixes best with it in general and I use my Protein powders mainly for Pre and Post workout smoothies. not looking for Fat sources here.

Honestly its great solo, but add a banana and you can never go wrong IMO.
If you want a cinnamon you should consider trying it in eggnog, so damn good!
Without eggnog just use milk + Select + 2 tsp cinn + 1 tsp nutmeg + 1 tsp rum extract.
^zero added carbs and a great holiday feel/taste

Sick eggnog recipe, prob add a banana for thickness.
Although I have been drinking actual eggnog for a few weeks now so will be hard to beat it.

And now you shamed my review that hasn't even been written yet. Don't think I can top this, amazing review. I have a feeling I'll feel the same way so I'm glad I didn't order much, 1 tub lasts me quite a while.

I had ordered TruZMA but alas, they ran out of stock.
I think that is my buying done for quite a while, I have 6x2lbs tubs of the special addition Select on the way too. Enough is enough

OK now I'm getting hyped. I love (spear)mint Choc, and it sounds like this is closer to that instead of Candy Cane Peppermint.

I can imagine bro, i also help support and take care of my parents though. the cost of living here alone is a joke, im just happy to keep working while living at home and eventually i will be able to afford my own place and do my own thing.
