tip-top

At the peak

Tip-top means the very best or highest quality: The car is in tip-top condition.

It can also refer to the highest point of something: the tip-top of the mountain.

The reduplicated form emphasizes extremity—top alone wouldn't be emphatic enough.

The word sounds slightly old-fashioned or folksy.
