It's a watercolor smooth paper, weight is 230g. You can use any watercolor paper, but if you are learning, best to use cold-pressed and heavier (300g) :)

Best is to visit an artist store yourself, pick a couple of different watercolor paper brands and test it at home. You will find one that fits you perfectly, than you can stick to it. Just make sure it's a quality acid-free paper, those don't yellow in time.
