The Sweetest Taboo is a twentieth album by Australian singer and songwriter Katie Noonan. The album is described as a jazz collection of reimagined 80s classics and was released in May 2020. The album peaked at number 70 on the ARIA Charts.

Noonan said "For my twentieth album, I wanted to go back to the magic, the joy, the spark that first started my love affair with pop music. This was in suburban Brisbane, Ashgrove, in the mid-eighties. I decided to focus on a particular period of time, aged seven to eleven, from my first single to my first album, to albums that really changed our lives like The Joshua Tree. I picked bunch of tunes and reimagined them with my favourite Aussie jazz musicians, so, it's feels awesome."

At the AIR Awards of 2021, the album won Best Independent Jazz Album or EP.
