Nope, don't think so, yet.
Most of the cheese specialty stores that deal only in cheese, and maybe fancy crackers, usually have a broad but repeating selection. I suppose if someone comes in and finds something they like, they'll come back asking for the same. So the shop is sort of obligated to carry that after a few customers start asking.
The other thing is give a piece of sharp cheddar to people raised on Velveeta and Kraft Mac&Cheese, will often not like it. Oooo it tastes funny, it's strange, it's awful, it's not cheese, I've seen more than one spit it out. That makes it harder for specialty shops to find enough clientele to survive. It also makes them hedge their bets with blander cheeses.
