Yes-that might be a true Epoisses-but you must examine the lable to see if it is the real thing-they are not showing a lable in the above link.
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.
