I haven't tried peach, but pecan is a great wood with a flavor similar to hickory but milder/sweeter.
Here's a wood flavor chart that should help you with wood choices.

Peach wood is all that Myron Mixon with Jack's Old South cooks with. I have used peach pellets in my FEC100 on my ribs. I do enjoy pecan also.
Very cool, thanks for all your help!
I use pecan for briskets and meatloaf mostly. I'll smoke ribs with peach if it for just Mrs. SmokinMAINEiac and myself. Peach has a tang to it, IMO.
Tonight I am doing four racks of loinbacks in my SM025 for nine people. I'm doing Memphis-style using apple wood. Usually for company I go with a blend of 2/3 hickory and 1/3 cherry. I only had one guest who ever commented on a different mix of smoking woods than my customary blend. Those are the comments one really appreciates as a cook.

Peach is one of my favorites.
What kind of flavor does Peach Wood give off?
This may help.
