Cheese problem

I tried a cheese recommended in the Globe: Devil's Rock blue. Mostly just because the reviewer made me curious with her suggestions of a buttery finish and of eating the cheese with a spoon. I was intrigued, but really it just tasted like a mild blue cheese. Really sour. Not bad, considering its blue cheese, but not particularly good. I had a bit of a cheese called Grey Owl, which was a smooth creamy cheese, which wasn't sour at all. But I guess that's just kind of like cream cheese isn't it? Usually when I've tried cheeses I've looked for something that wasn't so acrid but tasted different from the standards; swiss, cheddar, feta, and the rest. I haven't had that much luck.
