heavenliest

Supremely ethereal, transcendent

Heavenliest is the superlative form of heavenly—the most divine, blissful, or exquisite of all.

The word appears in religious contexts describing what is closest to heaven, but more often in effusive praise: That was the heavenliest chocolate cake I've ever tasted.

Like most superlatives of already-intense adjectives, it tends toward hyperbole.
