1. A water flavoring and filtering assembly for filtering water and imparting a selected flavor into the water, said assembly comprising:
a filtration unit having an input and an outlet wherein said input is configured to be fluidly coupled to a fluid source thereby facilitating said outlet to dispense a fluid from the fluid source, said filtration unit including a filtering element being integrated into said input wherein said filtering element is configured to have the fluid pass through said filtering element for filtering the fluid; and
a flavor dispenser being integrated into said filtration unit, said flavor dispenser including a plurality of reservoirs, each of said reservoirs containing a respective liquid flavor, a respective one of said reservoirs being actuatable to dispense a pre-determined volume of said respective liquid flavor into said filtration unit when said respective one of said reservoirs is actuated wherein said flavor dispenser is configured to enhance the flavor of the fluid; and
wherein said filtration unit comprises:
a housing having a bottom wall, a top wall and an outer wall extending between said bottom wall and said top wall, said input being integrated into said bottom wall, said top wall having a well extending downwardly toward said bottom wall, said well having a lower bounding surface and a lateral bounding surface, said lateral bounding surface being threaded, said lower bounding surface having an output opening extending into an interior of said housing, said lower bounding surface having an input opening extending into said interior of said housing, said outer wall having a first lateral side, a second lateral side and a front side, said first lateral side having a lobe extending laterally away from said first lateral side; and
a faucet having a lower end and an upper end, said lower end being coupled to said top wall of said housing, said faucet being positioned on said lobe, said faucet having a bend being positioned between said lower end and said upper end such that said upper end is directed downwardly.
