White chocolate flavor varies by brand and even by type within brand. Yes, the big companies that supply wholesale chocolate to smaller companies will have several different types of white chocolate. Believe me, they taste different, they also have different tempering and viscosity characteristics depending on what you are trying to do with it. Folks making 10,000 truffles a day on big production machinery are more concerned with the viscosity, etc. than flavor.

My wife uses Peter's white chocolate because it tastes better. Most of her other chocolate is one type of Wilbur or another. Though both Peter's and Wilbur are the same company these days.
