I had the impression Rising used older traditional methods to make paper 
in a 100 year old mill.  It looks like none of that happen now.

Rising was bought out by another company a few years ago. Rising made a paper called Stonehenge that I really liked - but after the buy out it changed.  I get really bad VanDyke's printing on Stonehenge now (not gum related I know ...)
