I've made that mistake many times. After a basketball game or running or something, a cigar will make me light headed and even nauseous.
Regarding the taste lingering, were you holding the smoke in your mouth? I smoke cigars somewhat regularly and I rarely get the lingering taste. When I draw the smoke in, I never close my mouth. I immediately squeeze the smoke out simply by closing my jaw but with my lips apart. Holding the smoke in your mouth can also increase the lightheadedness and nausea effects.
