Though it depends on your specific caps, all the very low leakage caps I have bought for precision low drift integrators (time constants of 1 second or more) were metal polyester film. They were also very stable over temperature compared to ceramic disk, which often stated +80 -20% over the commercial temperature range.

They are good for high frequency as well and the ones you show are quite high manufacturing quality. Just don't use the physically big ones to bypass. The leads will be too long or the distance from the part will defeat the purpose.
