Looks like your enjoying a lot of mild sticks, and need a bit more "practice" before moving up to the medium-full sticks.

I suggest:
Perdomo Reserve Champagne
Perdomo Lot 23
Perdomo Fresco
NUB Connecticut
RP Connecticut
Oliva Connecticut
Camacho Connecticut
Oliva Series G Maduro

Those are all in the Mild/Mild-Med. range. TO explore further into Medium or Med-Full body range I'd suggest eating a larger meal before smoking, and Keeping the RG to 52 and lower. At least until you can get a feel for the body of a cigar.

Hope that helps.

Pairing the cigar with a sweetened iced tea or soda will help too.

smoke w/coke zero or cherry zero
so far RP sungrown has been by far the best

As the others suggested. Smoke with a sugary drink because when you smoke a cigar, you blood-sugar will drop. That is what caused you to get light-headed. That is one of the symptoms of dropping blood-sugar. The more you smoke, you will build a tolerance to the nicotine and you will not feel that way as easily.

For a great mild smoke try the Casa Torano and H Up Vintage Cameroon.

I would go with the Casa Torano, it's a very nice Mild, Smooth Cigar..
It's my Top Choice for an everyday stick that’s easy on the wallet.

I agree with MJ.... A few on the milder to med side of life

Oliva G (nat or maduro)
H. Uppman Vintage Cameroon
Punch Royal Coronation
Gran Habano 3 Siglos

If you liked the criollo you smoked and want a small step towards a little spice:

AF Chateau Fuente SG (rosado wrapped)
Gran Habano #5 Corojo
Tatuaje Serie P

Tried to pick sticks that will not break the bank as they will all be new smokes for you to sample. As others noted, eat first, something sweet to eat/drink may help with any nicotine issues. Good luck.
