Having the most sweet taste, or being the most kind, gentle, or delightful in character or behavior.
From Old English 'swete,' related to Germanic roots and possibly connected to Sanskrit 'svadu.' The -est suffix marks the superlative form, meaning the highest degree of sweetness.
The word 'sweet' for both taste and personality shows how humans instinctively linked a pleasant flavor with pleasant character—it's such an old connection that most ancient languages use the same word for both!
