Gustiamo is probably the top of serious Italian cook in America. Small selection of olive oils, but I'd trust them to have only the best each year.

Local places: Pape Meat Company in Millbrea
Address: 25 Hillcrest Blvd, Millbrae, CA 94030
From Elena Kadvany's email:
I popped into Pape Meat Co. last week, an epic family-run butcher in downtown Millbrae. Open since 1958, the meat market is known for its dry-aged beef, wonderful customer service and knowledgeable staff.
For dinner, I grabbed some lamb shoulder chops — cut fresh that morning, the man behind the counter told me. And I couldn't resist the sliced-to-order prosciutto, which became that evening's appetizer, draped over lemon cucumbers (my favorite!), drizzled with olive oil and sprinkled with sumac Tajín.

Fancy Halva
Made in Los Angeles, but they ship and there are local retailers. Gotta check it out, but if it's good, it could be a good gift. And one of the flavors is vanilla :-)
