Mokambo: artisanal gelato from days gone by. In the heart of Ruvo di Puglia, there's a place where time seems to have stood still, making room for tradition, authenticity, and excellence: Gelateria Mokambo. For four generations, this historic artisanal workshop has enchanted palates with gelato that's much more than a simple dessert: it's a journey through the history and passion of a family that, since 1840, has jealously guarded an ancient and precious recipe. The secret to such deliciousness? Obsessive attention to raw materials, from fresh milk from the Alta Murgia to free-range eggs. From this foundation, top-quality ingredients are grafted to create nine gelato flavors that are true sensory experiences. It's difficult to choose a favorite, because each one tells a story, a land, an emotion. Gelateria Mokambo isn't just a place where gelato is made: it's a symbol of artisanal excellence, dedication, and a love for things done well. A must for anyone passing through Ruvo di Puglia and wanting to discover how gelato, when made with heart and history, can become an art.

Excellent quality raw materials!

I took the Mokambo Ultimate Experience and was pleasantly surprised with all the knowledge I obtained in this Gelateria. First, we were taught how to make Gelato the traditional way and all the tricks that make their Gelato the best in the world. Next, we learned about all the top tier ingredients they use such as Iran Saffron which is extremely expensive and the full family history of the gelateria which was really interesting. We then had guided tastings of different chocolates they use followed by tastings of every gelato they have. Finally, we had the star of the show the King’s Scepter. This gelato is Iran saffron flavored and is the best gelato I’ve ever had and probably the best in the whole world. It is so good, I am still thinking about it and feel like I am ruined from being able to fully enjoy any gelato except this one. I highly recommend booking this experience. Even if you have to travel from very far away it is well worth it!

August 2025 I participated in the tasting of the "Lo Scettro del Re" gelato. Aside from the excellent quality of the gelato and the refined ingredients used, what was striking was the owner Giuliana's complete dedication to sharing a passion and art that has been part of her family for generations. For me, it was an all-encompassing experience of taste and culture, an imaginary and enchanting journey in search of times long past, traversing the entire world!

Il loro gelato è eccezionale, ho apprezzato la valorizzazione della territorialità, la scelta attenta delle aziende con cui collaborare e soprattutto la storia che c'è dietro ogni preparazione che ha reso questo gelato degno della fila lunghissima che si crea nella strada che accoglie la gelateria. Andate ad ascoltare la loro storia e lasciatevi conquistare dal sapore dei loro gelati (pochi, ma curati in ogni particolare!)

Mokambo a Ruvo è un'esperienza di gelato superlativa. Ingredienti ricercati fanno la differenza, a partire da una vaniglia dal sapore intenso e indimenticabile. La panna, ricca e vellutata, è di un livello superiore. Le granelle pregiate aggiungono un tocco di originalità e croccantezza. Se cerchi un gelato artigianale di altissima qualità, questo è il posto giusto. Assolutamente consigliato!
