Most careful speakers consider "unique" to be a superlative, and therefore not to be modified by any adverb, especially in writing. Something is either unique or it is not. However, the notion that a superlative may not be modified is a feature of Latin grammar, not English. Certainly Shakespeare was not afraid to modify his superlatives ( "most unkindest" is perhaps the best known example), and who are we to be more correct than the greatest writer in the English language?

Which is the correct grammar to use in this sentence A unique experience or An unique experience?

Is most unique proper grammar?

No, "most unique" is not correct usage. "Unique" means one of a kind, so something is either unique or it is not: there cannot be different degrees of uniqueness, and something cannot be very unique or most unique. It is not uncommon to hear people say "very unique" or "most unique", but this is not correct. They should be using "unusual" if they want to use it with "very" or "most".
