I like the non-OBA papers like Premier Art's Hot Press 325 or 205, but 
what I really like for the warmest prints I make is what MIS sells 
as "Alpha."  It was a replacement for my favorite PermaJet Alpha, 
which, unfortunately, is no longer available in the U.S. The coating on 
both is Innova Soft Texture.  The MIS version is an alpha cellulose 
paper by Innova and available from not only MIS (letter size only) but 
also Shades of Paper and others under the Innova Soft Texture name.  I 
have made and continue to make profiles for it for whatever inkset I'm 
using.
