Have not had the Relic. Do not care for the Limitada 2008.

Love the Relic. Very good woodsy flavor. Limitada, not so much.

Not a huge fan of 5 Vegas.. never had one I liked. Tried the Relic, looks cool, tastes bad. Like MCS said, VERY VERY woody and nothing else IMHO... I dont like sucking wood:) There are some Relic reviews here:

The short, I did not like and killed it pretty quickly.

The relic isn't too good...
Bought a fiver and ended up giving 4 away.

The cask-strength is probably their best IMO, followed not so closely by the Series A sticks.

I have to say that I liked the Relic. other than the miami I haven't realy liked anything else that 5 vegas has done.

The Relic does have a woodsy flavor to it but there is some spice in there and a coffee undertone that I found. I thought it was realy good especialy with a pacifico. :ss

Actually, when I said I dont like any 5 Vegas... thats not true. The 5 Vegas Miami PC is a good stick... in my book they are still batting below 0.005... not great.
