ESN’s Flexpresso Whey Protein Coffee review: It keeps me full during busy mornings and helps me reach my fitness goals

THE highest compliment I can pay ESN’s Flexpresso Whey Protein Coffee is that my fiance and I have almost finished its giant 908g tub. And after realising there was only a few scoops left, she immediately asked me: “When are we getting another one?” ESN’s Flexpresso Whey Protein Coffee tastes great and is a massive time saver ESN’s huge 908g tub will last you ages and provides real value for money When I was first offered protein coffee I was sceptical as I had never heard of the concept before. But when I found out it was essentially like having a protein shake mixed with real coffee, I was excited to give it a try. Sign up for the Sport newsletter Thank you! Now, as a busy journalist I have to say – ESN’s coffee tub has been one of my go-to breakfasts in the mornings. It’s not always possible to step away from the desk for too long in this industry, especially when there’s a big breaking story. So knowing all I have to do is mix one serving of coffee protein powder with milk in a jug and whisk makes my life so much easier. And the protein – which works out at a huge 77g per 100g – means I stay full while I go about my day, which saves me a lot of time. You probably will need an electric whisk to make this work properly, otherwise you might find little lumps in your cup. But alternatively, you can just throw it in a protein shaker and take it with you to the gym, as I have done on a few occasions.

What we loved: Great taste and easy to put it all together. What we didn’t love: I was lucky enough to have an electric hand whisk, but those who don’t might struggle to mix the powder with your choice of milk. I’m working out fairly regularly at the moment and I’m trying to get my protein in as soon as my workout is done. Having one of these protein coffees when I’m back is a great way for me to meet my fitness goals. A few ice cubes really compliment it and goes a long way during this insanely hot weather the UK has been enduring. In terms of taste, I was pleasantly surprised given that this is the basic ‘coffee’ flavour. But it has a really sweet taste and almost feels like you’re drinking a vanilla milkshake. This is one of EIGHT flavours on offer and you might fancy trying caramel, hazelnut macchiato, cold brew dark cookies, chocolate, dark or white chocolate mocha or decaf. As you can see, our household were big fans of this protein coffee, which is almost finished The tub provides 30 portions of coffee powder and will set you back £49.90 Credit: ESN There are roughly 30 portions in the tub, but I promise you this will last you a long time. In my household, we have been using it for a long time and we are only just approaching the bottom of the container. Each tub will set you back £49.90 so this is a premium product, but if you think about it like 30 cups of coffee, it’s actually great value in the long term. At your local coffee shop, let’s say you’re charged £4.50 a cup on average – 30 of those would cost you £135. This really does taste like a barista-level coffee when you pour it in a tall glass over some ice. And if it helps you meet your fitness goals and save you some time along the way, well then that is a big bonus. Comment now
