    I've never had a problem with nicotine from any cigar. I don't know if one has ever even given me a buzz. But there is a couple pipe tobaccos that can get me a little light headed. Man tobacco I call them When that happens, I find that Sweet Tea or Coke gets rid of the spins real fast. I haven't been nauseous from tobacco since I was in middle school, so no advice there

    Another thing to consider is only smoking smaller vitola's until you become more accustomed to the vitamin N hit.

    As far as palate fatigue is concerned though, it is definitely a real thing. I find that if I smoke a lot of full bodied things back to back to back that all the flavors start to become muddled. Or if I smoke something heavy, then something mild after it. Water really helps clear things up too. Not beer or bourbon...which is what I usually am drinking when smoking...

    I've only been light headed from pipe baccy once.
    Just FYI, if you're nicotine sensitive, don't smoke 2 bowls of Nightcap back to back, then smoke a bowl of 1792 flake immediately afterwards.

    And for the OP, I bet when you give your cigars time to acclimate to a lower RH I bet you'll find them more enjoyable. I like mine in the 63%-66% range myself.
    Check out my Youtube channel, Razorback Piper Guy if you like that sort of thing.

    I used to chain smoke Nightcap all night while writing in college I think my record was like 10 bowls in one night while writing about current events in the middle east...Not to mention I would semi inhale back then too....

    No wonder I struggle getting a Nicotine hit.

    I concur on the 60%-65% RH. I like mine arounf 63% myself. Keeps decent flavor and eliminates burn issues.
