Didn't want to hijack the "soy sauce" thread.

I like Thai food ( particularly "spicey basil leaves" and "drunken noodle"). I am researching what ingredients are used in Thai cooking, I came across several references about "Golden Mountain seasoning sauce." It is a fermented soy sauce, and according to many reports, it appears it is a staple in Thai cooking.

Anyone specializing in Thai cooking willing to chime in about "Golden Mountain seasoning sauce"? Is it really a Thai food basic building block for getting authentic seasoning?

We grow Thai basil leaves in our herb garden for that flavor. Seeking input from accomplished Thai food cookers if Golden Mountain Seasoning Sauce is a key Thai food ingredient Thanks
