When I'm identifying a cheese I feel like it's 50% sight, 40% smell, 10% feel. It's hard to imagine identifying arbitrary cheeses with just sight. There are so many and a lot of them look extremely similar.
Even distinguishing between Jarlsberg and Swiss seems like it could be a challenge, and that would be easy relative to a lot of others. On top of that if you have something like brie there's a million of them - I don't think I could distinguish brie de nangis from another brie unless I could touch it.
