Greenland startup begins shipping glacier ice to cocktail bars in the UAE
theguardian.com
Arctic Ice harvests ice from the fjords of Greenland, and then ships them to the United Arab Emirates to sell to exclusive bars. Using glacial ice in drinks is a common practice in Greenland, and, over the years, several entrepreneurs have unsuccessfully attempted to export it.
Its co-founder Malik V Rasmussen said the ice, which has been compressed over millennia, is completely without bubbles and melts more slowly than regular ice. It is also purer than the frozen mineral water usually used in Dubai’s ice cubes.

What a stupid waste of resources. Ice is ice.
I hope Greenland just takes the orders but instead uses ice made by huge freezers in Romania.
Ditto except why not put the freezers in Dubai
I was thinking of maximising profit but maybe Greenland could get a good deal on the packed down snow at the end of the Dubai ski "season".
You havent drank glacier water. It's much more than just frozen water.
