Sweet basil and large leaf Italian and they taste very much the same to me. Just larger leaves.
BUT I did try blue spice basil this year and I may end up liking it somewhere. Just haven't figured out the recipe for it yet. To me it tastes like an extra strong blend of basil and mint. Even looks like a mint.
