Default O Henry vs White Hamon

I've decided to get my sweet potato slips from Southern Exposure next year. In the past, I've used Sand Hill, but I'd like to get them in earlier. I like white/cream sweet potatoes because they're drier and not as sweet at orange varieties. The two white varieties SESE is offering this season are O Henry and White Hamon. I guess White Hamon is different from Hayman, which I've grown. It's an heirloom from the Eastern Shore of Va and Md and it's good, but from what I'm reading, this is a different variety. So here's my question. If I prefer a drier, less sweet white sweet potato, which is a better choice for me--O Henry or White Hamon? I'm hoping someone has grown and eaten both, of course, but even if you've only grown one of them, I'd still like to read your opinion. Thanks in advance.
