Sometimes,and this is pretty common,cheese makers will make a cheese in a certain style of a famous(and expensive cheese)such as Epoisses an a different locale-and then ship it to be aged and distributed from the location that is home to the more expensive cheese.Often these are very good,and I sold a lot of these-but always with the understanding that this was not the real deal.
Thank you for the link-nice resource for those who do not have a cheesemonger near them.
