NT RASHA is a well-established standard for fine paper, much appreciated ever since its launch in 1949 as a pioneer of fine paper in Japan. 
As its name suggests, this paper is dense and feels warm, much like rasha, a thick plain-weave wool textile with a napped surface.
The presence of high-quality cotton pulp gives NT RASHA a distinctive soft and sophisticated feel.
The rich variety of over 100 colors, from pale to primary colors, is perhaps the biggest attraction that makes the paper a favorite of both professional creators and ordinary users.
