Meng Ding Sweet Dew is the name for a rare green tea grown on Meng Ding Mountain in Ya'an, Sichuan, China. It has straight, dark green leaves with an "intense" green infusion and a flowery cup.

The legend behind this tea states that the tea farmer, Wu Lizhen, planted the original seven tea bushes in 53 BC. For over a thousand years, this tea was reserved for tribute to the reigning families.

Total annual output is reported to be 60,000 tons (2005).
