It seems that the above query won't work in any case since searching

I need the set of products which contain BOTH tags. I've been toying
with it some more and came up with a solution which uses a subquery,
still not sure if this is the optimum solution yet or not.
If you're worried about optimization, the one thing I would watch for is
to ensure that the DBMS is still able to optimize the subquery by
determining the most restrictive initial set of data, or otherwise
implementing that optimization manually. With something like tags I
would assume that some are far more general than others so this could
have a significant impact. This is something that would normally occur
with a self-join, but a subquery is likely a more fitting solution in
your case.
I may also suggest coupling this with a digest form of the tags (similar
to a SET data type) which can then be run through a bitwise AND. This
would require organizing the tags (possibly into word-sized categories)
but should allow for very quick checks that wouldn't add overhead as
searches grew more complex.
$filtered_product_rs = $schema->resultset('Product')->search({
'product_tags.tag_id' => $tag2_rs->tag_id,
'me.product_id' => {
-in => [
$schema->resultset('Product')->search_rs({
'product_tags.tag_id' => $tag_rs->tag_id
},{
join => 'product_tags'
})->get_column('product_id')->all
]
}
}, {
join=> 'product_tags'
});

two searches:
You've used the ->search method in your code in list context, so it
calls ->all over the resultset and returns a list of row objects.
