This is the top of Macro Mike's range. The Luxe Premium Almond Protein takes their original almond protein - already the smoothest plant protein most people have tried - and pushes it further with richer flavour profiles, Panmol B-Complex from sprouted quinoa, and Lactospore probiotic in every serve. If you have tried other plant proteins and found them gritty, earthy, or vaguely depressing, this is the product designed to change that permanently.
The protein base is Californian almond protein blended with Australian-grown faba bean protein. Almond and faba bean are both naturally mild, which means the flavour system actually works - what the label says it tastes like is what it tastes like, without an earthy undertone fighting the flavour. Coconut milk powder adds natural creaminess and MCT fats. Coconut nectar and monk fruit handle the sweetness naturally. No artificial colours, no artificial flavours, no artificial sweeteners.
21g of protein per 40g serve at approximately 141 calories. Each 400g bag delivers 10 serves.
The flavours
Strawberry Thickshake - creamy strawberry milkshake. The most approachable flavour and the one that works best with just water. If you are trying Macro Mike for the first time, start here.
Caramelised White Chocolate - rich, buttery white chocolate with a caramelised depth. Tastes indulgent enough that it doubles as a dessert. Blends particularly well with oat milk.
Caramelised Biscuit - inspired by speculoos/biscoff spread. Warm, spiced, biscuity sweetness with a creamy finish. The most unique flavour in the range and the one people don't expect to love as much as they do.
Chocolate Caramel Bar - cocoa up front with a caramel finish, inspired by chocolate caramel candy bars. The most dessert-forward option in the lineup.
Cinnamon Churros - warm cinnamon with a sweet, fried-dough flavour profile. Different from anything else in the plant protein category. Works especially well blended into overnight oats or baking.
What makes Luxe different from standard Macro Mike Almond Protein?
The standard Premium Almond Protein delivers 23g+ protein per serve with the same smooth almond/faba bean base. The Luxe range trades a small amount of protein density (21g vs 23g) for a richer formulation: Panmol B-Complex from sprouted quinoa (a bioavailable, food-sourced B vitamin complex), upgraded dessert-tier flavour profiles, and a formulation refinement Macro Mike calls their smoothest texture yet. If raw protein per serve is your priority, the standard range edges it. If you want the richest flavour and the most complete nutritional profile per serve, Luxe is the upgrade.
Who is this for?
Anyone who wants a premium plant protein that tastes genuinely good - not "good for a plant protein" but actually good. Gym-goers, athletes, and active people who need clean protein post-workout or between meals. People who are vegan, dairy-free, or lactose intolerant. Anyone who has given up on plant protein because everything they tried was chalky, gritty, or tasted like grass. And anyone who values the added B vitamins and probiotics as part of a daily supplement stack rather than taking them separately.

Frequently asked questions
How does this compare to Macro Mike's Luxe Peanut Plant Protein?
Different protein base, different flavour experience. The Luxe Almond uses almond and faba bean protein - a neutral base where the flavour comes through clean and true to label. The Luxe Peanut uses roasted peanut, faba bean, and pea protein - every flavour carries a rich peanut butter undertone, which is the point if you love peanut butter. The Almond Luxe sits at 21g protein and ~141 calories per serve. The Peanut Luxe delivers 22g protein at ~156 calories. Both include Lactospore probiotic. The Almond Luxe adds Panmol B-Complex, which the Peanut does not. Choose based on whether you want peanut butter as the backbone or not.
Why is this 21g protein when the standard Almond Protein is 23g+?
The Luxe formulation allocates more of the serve to the flavour system, coconut milk powder, B vitamins, and probiotic. That gives you a richer-tasting, more nutritionally complete serve at the cost of 2g of protein. In practical terms, the difference is negligible - 21g is still a high-protein serve.
What is Panmol B-Complex?
Panmol is a food-sourced B vitamin complex derived from sprouted quinoa. Unlike synthetic B vitamins, Panmol delivers B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9, and B12 in a bioavailable, food-matrix form that your body recognises and absorbs more efficiently. It supports energy metabolism, nervous system function, and cellular health.
Is 10 serves per bag enough?
At one shake a day, a 400g bag lasts about a week and a half. The Luxe range is positioned as Macro Mike's premium tier - smaller batch, upgraded flavours. Not sure which flavour to commit to? Start with the Luxe Sample Pack (8 x 40g sachets across the almond and peanut ranges) to find your favourite.
Does this contain probiotics?
Yes. Every serve includes 1 billion CFU of Lactospore (Bacillus coagulans), a shelf-stable probiotic that supports gut health and digestion.
Is this suitable for people with peanut allergies?
The formula does not contain peanut protein - the base is almond and faba bean. However, it is produced in a facility that also handles peanuts, tree nuts, and soy. For severe anaphylactic allergies, consult your healthcare professional before use.
