There's someone in my tea

These are made by German design company Donkey Products. They come in three sets, each with five bags: RoyalTea, DemocraTea, and StripTea. Would be cool if each of the characters had a unique flavour attached to them. 'Putin' would taste rough and outdoorsy, 'Sarkozy' perhaps a little sharp and bitter...and you'd just put 'Obama' in whenever you felt like a little change.
