Every RAW paper is unbleached and made from less-processed plant fibers, which is why RAW papers are light brown instead of white. What changes from line to line is the fiber, how thin the paper is, and what comes in the pack. Here's the short version, then the details.

RAW Classic
The original RAW paper: unbleached, made from less-processed plant fibers with no chemical whiteners. Hold one up to the light and you'll see RAW's criss-cross watermark, which is pressed into the paper and changes its density. If you've never tried RAW, start here. It comes in every size, from single wide to king size, plus bulk 300s and 500s.
RAW Organic Hemp
Made from certified organic hemp, milled in Southern France and made into papers in Spain. It's still unbleached and thin, just hemp-only. Pick it if organic matters to you. Get it in 1¼, king size slim or the 300s pack.
RAW Black

RAW calls Black the thinnest unbleached paper it has ever made. Less paper means less paper taste, so you taste more of what you're smoking. It's a little more delicate to roll than Classic. Get it in 1¼ or king size.
RAW Artesano
Classic RAW papers in a pack that also holds tips and a small built-in rolling tray, so you have everything you need in one pack. Great for rolling away from home. Get it in 1¼ or king size.
RAW Connoisseur
RAW papers with a booklet of tips included. Get the Connoisseur 1¼ or the Organic Connoisseur king size.
So which RAW should you buy?
For most people, Classic 1¼. If you want organic, go Organic Hemp. If you want the thinnest paper and the cleanest taste, go Black. If you want tips in the pack, Connoisseur, and if you want tips and a tray, Artesano.
