  I've seen it described as smooth too, very misleading. It's probably
  the coarsest tooth I've seen on a coated inkjet paper. It's not
  whitened like PhotoRag so not as bright, but not nearly as warm as
  German Etching. Given all that, it's my favorite paper. Dmax like
  PhotoRag, without the card-like smooth surface and screaming white, it
  has a character that adds in a way I like. Looks beautiful with
  Steve's Xray floral images, particularly large, and I like it for
  straight large format landscapes. The surface does not take away from
  fine detail.
  If only that tooth were knocked down a bit, more like Somerset, it
  just might be perfect.
