A company more than 4,600 miles away — in Greenland, to be precise — has found a way to cater to the playground for the super-rich, Dubai.
Arctic Ice has made its first shipment of 22 tons of iceberg ice from the country, bound for the high-end bars and restaurants in the United Arab Emirates hot spot.
According to the 2-year-old company’s Instagram, its team scours the fjord near the country’s capital city of Nuuk to find wayward icebergs that have broken off the ice sheet.
The ice, purportedly hundreds of thousands of years old, and said to be untouched by pollution, was scanned for microorganisms and bacteria, then shipped by refrigerated cargo ships to the city.
From there, instead of melting into the ocean, it will help chill drinks — at no doubt at a price commensurate with all the legwork involved.
