Does single weight baryta paper still exist? If so, where could I order it?

Freestyle sells something called "Europe's Finest" that I've heard is really Agfa. They have an incredibly inexpensive single weight that's quite nice, but handling it is far more difficult than I remember single weight ever being 30 years ago. Curls too. I can't imagine any good way to display it without dry mounting, but it's low cost and the image quality is good. Probably I'm just spoiled by RC and medium weight papers.

B&H carries Kodak Azo and Ektamatic in single weight. Kodabromide is no longer made, but I suspect there is still some on shelves somewhere.
