Question: What are the 'best' high CRI LEDs (or LED arrays)that are available in small quantities?

I see Nichia 219B's (CRI 92) being used a lot around here.

Have found some CREE offerings that have 95+ CRI, however, they're not available to individuals.

Someone mentioned in another thread the Cree CXA series (which I believe is multi die) and comes in 90 CRI varieties up to 5000K CCT. Mouser sells the smaller 13xx and 15xx parts in single unit quantities.
