Where can I get chinese rice paper (hsuan paper) like this?

I bought a book and kit in a museum gift shop some years ago, called Chinese Brush Painting, put together by the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Since the book contained a full kit, it had some rice paper included. The book suggested it's made from sandalwood. It has a slight cream color to it, and is very thin. I have not been able to get a similar rice paper since, but it was my absolute favorite because the ink didn't run too much when I used it. Where could I locate a similar style of rice paper? My art supply store only carries one type I don't like as well, and there are no Chinatowns in my state.
