We have glorious peaches here in Colorado, which put Georgia’s to shame. I’m not much for desserts — although this sounds delicious — and like to slice them (instead of tomatoes) and assemble into a caprese with fresh mozzarella, basil, some nice olive oil and good balsamic. Thanks for the history!
When peaches are as good as yours sound, I also like to slice them, peeled, into a glass of wine - red or even a semi-sweet white. That salad sounds heaven. Jamie Oliver does something similar, adding torn strips of Parma ham and arugula.
I used to know an Italian who developed an allergy to all stone fruits in mid life. The poor bugger KNEW what he was missing out on, and would weep while the rest of us scarfed down the sort of peaches you describe in para1.

Peach season has ended here but I’ll remember for next year!

How deeply unfair! But what an unusual allergy.
