This may be a matter of opinion, but what is the best/correct way to finish off your tile to the baseboard trim. Shoud this be grout or perhaps caulk?

What type of trim? Tile? Wood?

If tile, grout will work fine.

If wood, top surface must be flat. About 1/8'' wider than tile face. This would work better with caulking same color as grout. The wood will move and crack grout.

Good luck

Like Chuck says, we need to know more about the type of tile and the type of trim. Chuck is totally correct about grout againist wood.
