Hahnemuhle's Photo Silk Baryta is suppose to be the best Baryta paper in the world if archiveability is not your priority, according to this review.

Photo Silk Baryta is nothing like Harman Gloss Baryta. It is like Ilford Gold Fiber Silk Baryta.

From the horse's mouth:

- FineArt Baryta 325 as an alternative for Gloss Art Fibre 300

What a shame they discontinued the Harman Gloss Art Fibre.  Also, Breathing Color's Vibrance Rag was also dropped.  Speaking of Breathing Color, they replaced their  Vibrance Rag with Vibrance Baryta. I'm waiting for a sample to arrive.  Perhaps the BC Vibrance Baryta could substitute for Harman Gloss Baryta?  And you can order 17x25 cut no problem.

[Update: BC is still working out the kinks of their new baryta paper. They temporarily pulled it.]

You could consider Innova IFA69, Exposition Baryte FineArt Satin paper. The 3880 medium setting is Premium Photo Paper Luster.
It's my favorite fine art B&W paper. In the NL the cost of a 25 sheet A3 box is €56,00.

If Harman by Hahnemuhle Gloss Baryta is the same paper as Hahnemuhle Photo Gloss Baryta, why is one twice the price? Is one better than the other?
