To delete all tags stored in the database, just connect directly to the
database and delete the tags from there. I installed sqliteman to browse
the database and you can also delet them from there, or use your
favorite application.

It seems the tables imagetags, tags and tagstree should be the
candidates. 

If you have already written the tags to the photo metadata, it should
work to delete them in the database directly and then rewrite to the
photos.

And please make a backup of database and images before playing around
wiht this...
