I use MIS glossy carbon on glossy paper for my "sepia" tone prints.  They
have a Lab B of up to about 12 to 14.  The 100% carbon is going to be much
more stable than the loads of yellow and magenta you'll need from the color
set to get to that point.  Even if you go more brown than that, starting
with a warm carbon would seem to make the most sense.
