It's made from a special kind of tree that we feed chakra as it grows. The paper that's made from it is highly sensitive to even the smallest amounts of chakra as a result, to the point that it can distinguish a person's nature through it.

[That said, maybe he will see about requesting some. It could be interesting for Masaomi. With Katara and Aang, he's mostly curious to see if the similarities between chakra and chi are that thorough.]
