Ascent 100% Whey Protein Powder - Post Workout Whey Protein Isolate, Zero Artificial Flavors & Sweeteners, Gluten Free, 5.7g BCAA, 2.7g Leucine, Essential Amino Acids, Chocolate 2 lb

Product is good but has the strange taste that stevia has. Im mixing it with other sweetend and unsweetened powder to use it up. Mixed in coffee its not bad but by itself is a bit strange for my taste. If your mixing it into a shake or something else its a great healthier product vs the artificially sweetend ones.

I’ve been using this protein powder for months in my everyday smoothies and the flavor is great. The only downside is the price keeps steadily increasing to where it’s not worth the hike for the 2lb amount you’re given. Lower the price back down to $30 then I’ll resume buying once a month.

I didnt mind the lemon sorbet flavor. it tasted like a lightly lemon flavored vanilla. It has a slight after taste but nothing horrible. I had high hopes for this protein but unfortunately it caused me to have some stomach and digestive issues after drinking it. I am sensitive to proteins and this apparently is one that I cannot have. It is unfortunate because I like what the company stands for.

Im impressed with the ingredients, both the types and quantities. Just a handful of ingredients vs. 20+ with other proteins. The product smells like cocoa, a very faint cocoa, but it just smells like a real food. As weird as it probably sounds, I like that it doesnt have sand in it, like most protein mixes. I know the sand used in other protein mixes is safe to consume, but I never really enjoyed the thought that I was drinking sand. I drink this type of stuff for sustenance, so Im not too picky on the taste, but it actually has a decent taste. With 8 ounces of water, its too thin to taste like much. 6 ounces of water and you can taste the chocolate a little more, its good enough, but certainly not great. With 4 ounces of water, it just tastes like a hot chocolate drink that has cooled. This is the first protein powder Ive tried where it actually tastes good with just 4 ounces of water. The less liquid I have to drink to get the protein Im looking for, the happier I am. Others have more sugar or sugar substitute added so that it tastes better based on the 8 ounce standard. This has less sugar and so it cant support that much liquid and still taste good. I dont see it as a problem though because now its just like a quick shot of chocolate protein and Im good. Not some drink that Im trying to choke down. My only complaint is the packaging. I cant stand these bags that some protein manufacturers use. Maybe its more environmentally friendly, I dont know. I ended up pouring it into a large tupperware type container thats used for storing flour. Protein needs to be shaken up every now and then and its risky to do so with these types of bags because they are very hard to seal. So put it in a solid contain so you can shake it up without flinging protein dust everywhere. Good stuff though. After 10 years of consuming maybe 30 different brands of protein, I think Ive found a good one here.

This product, in terms of quality, is top tier. Just look at the ingredients. There’s no amino spiking, no garbage. Just pure quality protein. Which I’m sure some of you don’t know about spiking, but most of your protein powders that say 25g or more are actually lying and you’re probably only getting 14g-17g of quality muscle building protein. Yes, it’s a little pricey, but understandably so. Regarding taste, it’s good. I’ve only had chocolate, but have found nothing offensive about it. Now it doesn’t have that super creamy backbone that some look for, but that’s probably a result of other poor ingredients to give you that mouth feel. I don’t find it to be overly sweet like some of the comments mention. In fact other products like Syntha 6 and such I find to be much sweeter than this one. To the people who said be aware of allergy concerns “it contains MILK!” Just shut up. Like honestly stop speaking. Where do you think whey comes from? You got bigger problems and need to do more education and research before you start taking supplements if you can’t make that connection.

Works for me after workouts. Mixes great with a shaker blender bottle.
