Of the many products based on traditional Chinese medicine, Tiger Balm is one of the few whose roots really stretch to Imperial China. Its formulator, Aw Chu Kin, an herbalist like his father before him, emigrated to Burma during the waning years of the Qing Dynasty. By the late 1870s he was selling his still unnamed ointment from a flourishing apothecary in Rangoon. After his death in 1908, Aw Chu Kin’s own sons carried on the family legacy by relocating the business to Singapore, expanding it across Southeast Asia, and giving it the name by which it became famous worldwide.
