There are a number of super, in-depth looks into individual spirit categories. I believe them unnecessary unless you want to be an expert. I have found whiskies and rums to be the least understood. Here are a few suggestions.
Whiskey & Spirits For Dummies by Perry Luntz. Great for overviews of the spirit categories.
Whisk(e)y Distilled by Heather Greene. Fairly in depth for the major categories of whiskies.
Rum Curious by Fred Minnick. Don't know of a better, all around rum guide.
~Have fun!
2017 seems to have been the year of rum books.
Smuggler's Cove (2016) is, of course, excellent.
For mixing cocktails, Jeff "Beachbum" Berry's books are indispensable.
I've heard good things about Rum Curious by Fred Minnick, foreword by Martin Cate (so it's legit): https://www.amazon.com/Rum-Curious-Indispensable-Tasting-Worlds/dp/0760351732
I highly recommend Fred Minnick's book Rum Curious, https://www.amazon.com/Rum-Curious-Indispensable-Tasting-Worlds/dp/0760351732. It scores rums and talks about what sugars, about the industry, and very much the realities of the industry at that. It's a great read, seriously.
