Quimbaya (Kimbaya) is a poorly attested, extinct language of Colombia. It was spoken by the Quimbaya. Only 10 words can be possibly attributed to Quimbaya. This is insufficient to establish Quimbaya as a distinct language.
A few words of the Quimbaya language were recorded in Adolf Bastian's Die Culturländer des alten America, which are presented below.: 243, note 1 Adelaar and Muysken (2004) speculate about the possibility of the wordlist being from Chocoan-speaking immigrants to the area.
