Here is a helm approach that seems like what you want.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(defun tag-lister ()
  "Function that gets and returns possible tags."
  (list "tag1" "tag2" "tag3"))

(defun helm-tagger ()
  (interactive)
  (helm
   :sources
   `((name . "HELM tag setter")
     (candidates . ,(tag-lister))
     (action . (lambda (candidate)
                 (org-set-tags-to (helm-marked-candidates)))))))


#+END_SRC
