I had this same question a few months back. Ive found that any paper with higer gsm is better and 100% cotton is also a major plus. My current top 3:
Moleskins are pretty bad for gouache. Your best bets will be a watercolor paper, minimum 110lb, but you'll get better effects with 140lb paper.
If you like having notebooks instead of loose paper:
Watercolor sketchbook with 110lb cold press paper
Watercolor spiralbound sketchbook with 140lb cold press paper
Strathmore watercolor sketchbook 140 lb cold press paper
I've used mixed media paper for watercolors, but I try to avoid anything less than 100lb cold press for watercolor or gouache, cuz the paper will buckle and won't handle the paint.
I do the same and am a fan of Micron pens.
